Hello everyone and thank you for sharing your Elmer pictures and stories with us. It’s great that many of you found the painted Elmer tiles around the park and school.

It wouldn’t be a birthday without cake so why not try to make an icing Elmer you can eat?

1. Draw round Elmer and cut it out.

2. Roll out fondant icing and ask a grown up to cut your Elmer shape out using the paper template.

3. Cut out coloured icing squares for the patchwork.

4. Put the squares in a patchwork pattern on the Elmer icing shape on top of a cake. A grown up can use a sharp knife to trim the edges.
