Sorry your question got missed! I believe Tess has said that the base needs to be some form of cake, so a cookie base will not work, if that's what you meant. But you could definitely put a kitten-shaped cookie on your cake as a decoration.

humm......i can put the cookie dough on the top of the cake batter to make the cake bace! then i'll have a harder top inwhich to decorate with iceing and candy!......do you suppose that will work?

[Kecko]

I have a question, I'm a little confused on a rule I read. It said that the decorations should be mostly edible but then I saw someone answered a question and sayed they had to be edible. Do they all have to be edible or can some not be?

[moonlily]

That certainly sounds like an interesting experiment. XD I would imagine you need to bake them separately, else the cookie dough is likely to sink to the bottom of the cake batter, since it's heavier. Or by smothering the cake batter, a solid layer of cookie dough may not allow the cake to bake properly.

The only parts of the decorations that do not need to be edible are support structures. For example, you could use a toothpick to hold up the balloon. The supporting toothpick does not need to be edible, but the decoration itself (the balloon), does. Does that help?

my sister tryed it with chocolate cake mix and made brownies......she didnt have enough water in the mix.....and it worked......i could cut the shape out of the same method.........only problem with that is......i probably couldnt eat the finished product cause im lactose-antolorant..........but my sis and cousins might....and of cource my grandfather.......think that could work?

Yep, I think, I'm not sure if mine would have been ok then, Can I send you a picture through PM and see if it was ok or if I messed it up some?

If you really aren't sure, it'd be better to send it to Nick instead, and ask him or Tess to look it over. ^^
