My sister made this Curious George birthday cake for her daughter’s 5th birthday party.  Curious George is a big star in my niece’s house.  The cake was made using a simple vanilla sponge.  The decoration was done by hand using different icing colours and melted chocolate.  Chocolate buttons are planted around the sides of the cake, which children love.  My nieces enjoyed helping their Mam to make this cake together.  They were all very happy with the result.
