Dog Cake Tips
Frosting
ideas: cream cheese, peanut butter, yogurt, Neufchatel
cheese or cottage cheese. Stiffen icing with meringue
powder, which is basically powdered egg whites.
Dogs shouldn't
have as much cake as people eat. A bite or two will
thrill the dogs at your party, and will avoid tummy upset
later. Any unfamiliar dog food can cause digestive upset.
Use organic
peanut butter, rather than the major brands. It has fewer
trans fats and is better for your dog.
If your dog is
allergic to wheat, substitute rice flour.
Nuts are
often not broken down during digestion, so be sure to chop
nuts well when using them in recipes.
Raisins
and grapes have been known to cause diarrhea and vomiting in
dogs when fed in large quantities. Use raisins sparingly for
decorating cakes.
Carob, a
dog-safe chocolate substitute, can be purchased in powdered
form or as carob chips at many grocery and health food stores.
For
candles, use rawhide chews, Milk Bones or purchase
bone-shaped
candles
to add the finishing touch to your masterpiece.
