Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Leprechaun Trap Cake

We made this cake, which we saw at Not Martha last year, in the hopes that we could trap a leprechaun. Did we? Almost! When we came out this morning the trap was broken through but there was no leprechaun inside...hmmm...

Nabbed!
Nabbed!
Wait! What's this!? It looks like he tunneled out the side. Why are the crumbs that color?

Escaped

He left a rainbow inside the cake when he tunneled out!

Surprise Rainbow

Let's reexamine our steps and see what might have gone wrong. First we set a trap...

The trap is set

then cleverly camouflaged it...

Clever camouflaging

Who knew leprechauns ate cake? :) Better luck next year!!
