Los Angeles-based Kelly Mindell recently created a Froot Loops cake that people can make for themselves if looking to enjoy a fake bowl of cereal for dessert.
The clever design of this cake looks like an actual bowl filled with colorful Froot Loops. The recipe to create this cake is posted on Mindell's blog titled 'Studio DIY.' The treat is relatively simple to whip up and calls for a variety of common cupboard ingredients including sugar, flour, vanilla and Froot Loops. While Mindell has the ability to sculpt and shape her cake into an actual bowl, those who are less creative can still enjoy the same flavor without the intricate design.
This DIY dish is an ideal way to combine two opposite meals and crush sugar cravings by enjoying cereal for dessert.
