When I first got interested in making cakes one of the first ones I did was a "Hodag" Cake...For those of you not familiar with Rhinelander the Hodag is the mascot of the city of Rhinelander. It is a ferocious beast that lives in the woods, smells horrible, and eats white bulldogs. Anyway, it has been years since I have done a Hodag cake but was asked to do one this year for a graduating high school senior.
Since it had been years since I had done this I was pretty nervous that I wouldn't remember how I had made it...but being a "Hodag" myself I found it to be no problem!
Happy Graduation Adam! Best of luck to you!
The Hodag pictured above is a lemon poppy seed cake with buttercream frosting. Since it was a large party the family also asked for a traditional chocolate cake with chocolate buttercream...a breeze to make after constructing a Hodag!
