Help your Kids Make a cake like the Nyan cat character!
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 pop-tart for a body and a rainbow for a jet-stream. 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 received. She recognized it instantly and they burst into the Nyan nyan song.
The cake was easy to make. She started with a 9×13 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!
No doubt the pop-tart will be the last part of the cake that gets eaten!
And here is a video of our nyan cat cake so you can see it better:
