Cute Kittens
by Debbie Brown
Made from cake and crisped rice cereal, these kitties are ideal for a christening or first birthday.

Debbie made the original design for a special little girl named Hannah for her first birthday. The design proved so popular she thought it would be nice to include a similar design in her book, Baby Cakes. You could always make a few extra kittens and position them around the party table, seemingly attempting to steal the party food.
