Recipe View Fill the Mold: Fill the face-side of the lamb cake mold with the batter. Use a wooden skewer or chopstick to gently remove any large air pockets without disturbing the prepared surface of the mold. Place the lid on the mold and secure it tightly to prevent separation during baking. Place the mold on a baking sheet. (5 minutes)

Recipe View Cool the Cake: Transfer the mold to a wire rack and let it cool for 15 minutes. Carefully remove the top of the mold. Allow the bottom of the cake to cool in the mold for another 5 minutes to allow steam to escape and the cake to firm up. Remove the cake from the mold and let it cool completely on the wire rack. (20 minutes)

Recipe View Decorate: Once the cake is completely cool, frost it with your favorite white frosting. Use a star tip to create a textured, wool-like effect. Add jelly beans for eyes and arrange the cake on a bed of green-tinted shredded coconut (optional) for a festive presentation. (20 minutes)

For a richer flavor, consider adding a 1/4 teaspoon of almond extract to the batter along with the vanilla.
Ensure the lamb cake mold is thoroughly greased and floured to prevent sticking. Pay close attention to the details in the mold.
To create green coconut 'grass', mix shredded coconut with a few drops of green food coloring in a resealable bag and shake well.

    Such a cute and festive dessert! Thanks for sharing the recipe.

  • Georgette Kovacek

    I used a cream cheese frosting, and it was delicious!

  • Judge Leffler

    The cake was a little dry, I think I over baked it. I will check it 10 minutes sooner next time.

  • Jameson Beer

    I added a hint of almond extract to the batter, and it complemented the vanilla beautifully.

  • Kiel Rippin

    I had some trouble with the cake sticking to the mold, even after greasing and flouring. Next time, I'll try using baking spray with flour.

  • Buddy Oreilly

    Has anyone tried this recipe with a gluten-free flour blend?

  • Aron Haley

    The green coconut grass was a brilliant touch! It made the cake look so festive.
