Snickers Birthday Cake

March 12, 2017

Snickers Birthday Cake

Ah guys, this cake! This Snickers birthday cake has been both a labour of love and my biggest nemesis. Before I put you off, the cake tastes insanely good and each part is easy to make. I’m just an unfortunate combination of terrible-at-cake-decorating and a perfectionist. You see my problem?
