If you have little trust in your pastry-bag handwriting to decorate a special homemade cake, do this instead…

Decorate your cake with gumdrops! They come in all kinds of sizes and colors. People have been using gumdrops for years to decorate gingerbread houses, but why limit yourself to the small window of Christmas? Use them for birthdays, showers and whenever you need a festive cake design. You can also use gumdrops as tasty holders for your birthday candles.
