Easy Christmas Cake Decorating Idea: Santa Claus Cake with Candy Cane Stripes!

The holiday season has this amazing way of getting everyone in the mood for baking, and it warms my lil heart!! While most people are focused on cookies and fudge, I wanted to offer a fun cake idea to mix things up.
This Santa cake is all about festive surprises from the inside out! When you slice into this babes you will reveal its hidden treasure... a playful surprise of candy cane-striped layers, adding that extra touch of holiday spirit. And of course, the outside is just as merry with its jolly Santa-themed decor. Focusing on Santa's iconic red hat and his fluffy white beard, this simple cake nails the theme without being overly tedious and difficult to craft. I truly believe that anyone can make this cake, from beginners to home baking experts!
So, let me take you through how to bake up these delicious vanilla cake layers, get that stunning candy-cane striped effect, and decorate jolly old Saint Nick! Enjoy a mix of voiceover, festive music, real time speed, and light-speed clips 😂
You can find the full recipe below if you want to bake along with me :)
