Puzzle Piece Cake

I recently shared this Puzzle Piece Cake tutorial at 30 Days
for Autism Awareness Month.

Puzzle pieces are often used as the symbol for Autism Awareness.
So, I decorated this cake with edible puzzle pieces in primary colors.

 
Let me show you how easy it was to make!
Start with a silicone mold like this one.


Melt some vanilla candy coating or candy melts,
and add food coloring.


Put your candy coating in a decorating bag and snip off the tip. 
Squeeze the chocolate into the mold, just covering the bottom of each cavity.


Let them set up, then gently push on the back of the mold to pop the puzzle pieces out.


Arrange them around the sides of your cake, and put a few on the top.
You could also color your cake layers to match the puzzle pieces. :0)


"Motherhood is about raising and celebrating the child you have, not the child you thought you would have. It's about understanding that he is exactly the person he is supposed to be. And that, if you're lucky, he just might be the teacher who turns you into the person you are supposed to be."
