Some Oreo-inspired cake decorating tips:
- Stack them on the sides of your cake to create a unique pattern. You can also use mini-sized ones. This idea would be perfect for a hockey-themed birthday cake!
- Personalize your cake by putting lettered icing on the cookies. Or buy ready-made sugar letters and place them on the crème side of the cookies (wherein the cookies are opened).
- Crumble the cookies and sprinkle them on the top of your cake. Add other goodies like crumbled chocolate bars, mini marshmallows, and wafer cookies. This would look awesome on a drip cake!
- Put a dollop of whipped cream on top of your cookies and add sugar sprinkles. Place carefully on top of your cake.
- Open up the cookies and add “eyes” using chocolate chips. Place them on the crème portion of each cookie.
- Create an instant birthday cake by simply stacking several of the cookies in a neat, tiered manner. Add flowing ribbons starting from the top of the cake. Place flower heads in some open spaces available on the cake.
