frosty loves coconut chocolate cake

Frosty the snowman loves chocolate cake as much as I do. That´s for sure!

Isn´t he cute? A little snowman standing on top of a chocolate cake.

Frosty is made of marzipan, coconut flakes and a saturday boredom. Everything  about this little man is edible, even his sticks made of thyme.

Living in this winter-wonder-coconut-land, he´s never gonna melt:-)

The only problem he has, he is to delicious and his cake too...

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year...
