Ice Cream Cakesicles

I recently did another fun collaboration with my sweet friend Tiffani @tiffani_triedandtested over on Instragram.

The theme for this collab was ice-cream.  So, I decided to make Ice-cream Cakesicles so I could try out my new ice-cream moulds and also try out some products that the lovely team at @queenfinefoods sent me.

These Ice-cream cakesicles are made with delicious coconut cake & are covered in white chocolate.  The ice-cream drip is decorated with pretty sugar strand sprinkles.  The eyes, mouth and cheeks are drawn on with writing icing.

I hope you get a chance to make these cute cakesicles.

Happy Baking xo
