Taco Cake

Taco Cake on Cake Central

I did this one for my daughter's 9th birthday. She didn't want a 'cake' so we went with this one. The shells are white chocolate (dyed) with graham crackers for texture. The 'meat' is dyed WASC, the 'lettuce' and ;cheese' are coconut. The 'sour cream' is frosting and the 'tomatoes' are chopped up gummy life savers. She loved it!

What a fun idea. Did you serve mock margaritas? LOL Everything looks so great. I would love to know more about how you made the shells. Did you let the white chocolate harden a bit and then somehow fold it over?

First I melted white chocolate and a tad of dark chocolate and then added a few drops of yellow food coloring. After that I added a few graham craker crumbs to the chocolate. Then I put some of the melted mixture onto a circle of wax paper. Then I folded that over a real taco shell (to get the shape). It only took about 3-5 minutes to harden.
