We've all done it. We've all grabbed an ugly grocery store cake for a special occasion and sighed with dismay. Tsk Tsk.

Turn your sigh to a swoon! Here's how to glam-up grocery cake in 3 easy steps.

What to buy:
Any small cake/cheesecake from your grocer's bakery section
1 can of Ready Made Frosting or Ready Made Cream Cheese Frosting
Red food colouring
5 small packages of Pink Pocky Sticks

How to transform it:
Add 1 drop of red food colouring to your frosting. Mix well to get a deep pink colour.
Lightly frost your cake to create the pink base. If using cheesecake, all of the major brands also offer a cream cheese frosting option you can utilize in exactly the same way.
If you've purchased a birthday cake with icing flowers/decorations on it you can easily slide a knife underneath them and lift right off.
Press Pocky sticks one at a time onto the sides of cake. The frosting will easily hold them upright.
Leave all the Pocky Sticks one length or alter the lengths to make a custom pattern simply by snapping them to the measurement you'd like.
Top off with a rose or a few rose petals! They're completely food safe and can even be sugared to be eaten, whether they're from the florist or your garden. Just make sure they are pesticide-free.
