A word of advice before designing your cake. Make sure that the figurines you are using to decorate the cake are approved for usage on cakes and approved to come in contact with food. Otherwise, there is the makings for food contamination. Only buy your products from approved businesses that sell cake decorations.
Who is Scooby Doo? He is one of the few timeless properties to continue a dependable, strong retail presence for years. Scooby is a character both boys and girls love, he is silly, funny, cool and is the best dog at mystery solving. He is on a cartoon with consistent air time and top ratings across the earth. Scooby Doo can be watched on average 3 times per day, 7 days per week and on-air in 16 countries. Scooby’s DVDs have sold over 50 million copies. His primary core customers are boys and girls from 3 to 8.
Scooby cakes can be decorated with many different themes. The Edible Image® Decoration features Scooby bursting through a paper banner designed with streamers all around it. Edible Image® is a decal like safe to eat material that can be placed directly onto the cake. The Edible Image® melts into the cake. Another Edible Image® cake design has Scooby happy with a grin that shows his teeth, and his big paw print in the backdrop.
Cake Kits are cake decorating kits premade with all of the characters of that particular kit included. This way you do not have to purchase all of the components individually. The Scooby Doo & Shaggy with Mystery Machine Cake Kit is the most popular Scooby item sold. Shaggy is holding Scooby who has clearly jumped into his arms. The Mystery Machine van is in the background. The same design can be used for cupcakes that are all put together. You’ll need 24 cupcakes to accomplish this.
Pop Tops® are flat plastic shaped designs used to decorate cakes. The new Scooby Doo 4 Pc Pop Tops® set includes a 3 ½” full body quirky pose of Scooby and three gift packages that would be placed around the cake. The other Pop Top® is a somewhat large 5 ½” view of Scooby commencing with the neck up. The Scooby Doo Candle which is 2 ½” high can also be used to adorn your cake.
The remaining items that a cake decorator would use to complete the sweets for this party would be both cupcake picks or rings. There are a number of food safe cupcake picks and rings that are offered. They are all about 1 ¾” in size. The most up-to-date pick that I’ve seen is called a “spinner pick”. The pick itself at 3″ round is bigger than standard picks, this is to permit the inside picture segment, room to spin.
