Wow, what a FUN cake!! My 3 year old daughter helped me make it for her and her brother to bring to day care for Easter. I colored the cake batter bright rainbow colors. When I picked my kids up that day there was a list of moms that wanted my recipe! Wow, made me feel good! Thanks for such a fun, great recipe!

I had no idea anyone else made this cake! It's been an Easter tradition at our house since my childhood. Fun-fetti cake mix works great and gives it a fun look. We also dye some coconut pink, to fill the ears, and green for the bow. Gum drops also work great for the eyes and decorations.

This was a hit at Easter time. I didn't use jelly beans or licorice, just white frosting for the main part and pink frosting for outlining the bow tie. I use black writing frosting for the whiskers and eyes. And used coconut with some died pink for the ears. Will keep this recipe to make next year. My 4 year old loved helping

Clever idea, fun and easy. Used yellow cake for face and chocolate cake for ears and tie. Did not add coconut to cake batter or cover entire cake with coconut. Kids enjoyed decorating with colored coconut, red licorice, and tiny jelly beans.

My mom and I made this cake when I was a child, and I now make it with my son. It's super easy, and everyone is always impressed. An excellent Easter tradition. This year I used the Carrot Cake II recipe and frosting, it was excellent!

Lots of fun to make. Used chocolate cake and coconut on the ears and bow tie only. Used black decorator frosting and Jolly Rancher jellybeans as decoration. Recommend using two cans of frosting---we only used one and felt the cake would have looked nicer with two coats of frosting.

This is a great idea!! I used a deep dark chocolate cake recipe and homemade vanilla icing. Skipped the coconut as the kids don't like it. Set some of the white icing aside to colour it pink for the ears, mouth and nose. My daughter's class will love it once again!! This is the second time I have made it for her class.

I have been making this since I was young after finding it in a magazine somewhere. It has been on the menu every year since then. Now my son is the one to make it though.

This cake was so easy to make!! My husband made the cake and I decorated it. We got rave reviews! We made a chocolate cake and used a white (homemade) frosting. We mixed some of the frosting with red food coloring for the inner part of the ear, nose and mouth. We also mixed some blue food coloring with it to make the eyes and decorate the bowtie. We used star sprinkles to deocorate the tie and then sprinkled coconut all over it to give it a furry look. We also mixed some of the coconut with green food coloring which we used as grass. Will definitely make this again!! :)

Very cute, quick and easy! What could be better? I didnt have coconut, so I took some easter basket grass and scattered it around the foil-lined sheet. Then I sprinkled some jelly beans in the grass. This was a huge hit, and I will definitely make it again! :)

This is super easy and sooo cute! I have fond memories of making this cake as a child, and now my three kids enjoy making it. We don't use the coconut because the kids don't care for it. They love to decorate the cake with tubes of colored icing. This makes a great Easter tradition.

This is a fun cake to make with your children. We had fun using whatever cake decorations I had plus the jellybeans. The children loved making it and even better loved eating it. This will be a tradition we will do every Easter.

I made this cake because my husband's mom makes it every year, we live far away, so I made it for him. I used Carrot Cake mix and Cream Cheese Icing instead and no coconut. I tinted the icing with dye for the ears and bowtie and used sweet tart jellybeans for decoration. It was adorable, I will make this every year from now on!!

SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO CUTE! and so easy!! This will be an Easter tradition at our house from now on! I used chocolate frosting to draw the face, used jelly beans to outline the bowtie, mini m&ms for the eye color and then we put some green coconut around his body to give him some more color. I'll upload a picture later. Ours isn't as cute as the picture that's there- but we (my mom, me and my 3 year old- how fun!) had a great time doing it! Plus, the recipe isn't 'fussy' (no need to worry about getting the icing perfect, etc) because it's for the kids and it's just FUN! Thanks for this memory maker!!

We make this every year for Easter, the kids love it! I outline the bowtie in choc. chips to define it a little more and then fill it in with the pink tinted coconut. I also spread green tinted coconut around the edges of the cake on the cookie sheet to give it alittle more color. Great, easy recipe though!!
