| If your kids are youtube
pop culture crazy, then no doubt they have seen the Nyan
Cat on youtube. At the time of this writing, that video had 58
million hits! Yeah, I know it's just a cartoon cat flying through
space with a poptart for a body and a rainbow for a jetstream. It doesn't
do anything else. The silly repetitive sound it makes, "nyan nyan
nyan," is probably why kids like it so much.
My daughter was making a
to make a birthday cake for her cat-loving sister and decided to make it
look like the Nyan Cat. She surprised her with the final product,
and it was very well recieved. She recognized it instantly and they burst
into the Nyan nyan song.
The
cake was easy to make. She started with a 9x13 cake from a box mix.
She used yellow cake, but you can use any flavor. Then she added some colored
frosting.
She topped it off with a
real Pop Tart (or any generic toaster pastry) and some pieces from a bag
of rainbow colored Twizzler sticks. Finally, A few details of frosting
for the cat's face, feet, tail and stars finished it off!
