scooby doo? or colin the caterpillar?
my brain randomly came up with the idea to combine two things i love, so i present to you, Scoolin the Dogerpillar!
this thing is so cursed and strange and i made it completely as a joke but i am so happy with how it came out in the end, it’s exactly how i pictured it in my head!
i wanted to try a swiss roll again as i have only ever made two before, and the first one was kinda rubbery, and the second i found was way too rich, i think this is the best outcome so far, although the sponge was a little dry, but with the cream it wasn’t too much of an issue.
the limbs are made of sugar cookies, and i spent 100% way too long icing them😅 (the face took me over 2 hours in total to ice i believe) but it’s only my second time icing biscuits using royal icing like this, and for such a precise design i wanted to be careful.
i don’t have scooby doo cookie cutters either so i printed out pictures of the parts i needed and cut round them with a knife on the cookie dough to get the shapes!
