Meet Oliver. You can call him Ollie for short. Ollie is a Christmas octopus. Oh, haven’t heard of those before? I mean, he’s all dressed up and ready to go. He’s got his Santa hat and he’s even snazzed it up a bit with the bow tie. If Ollie had had more time to get ready, I think he might have slipped on some French cuffs and his fancy cuff links.
Ollie came to New Jersey with me for some Christmas celebration. He enjoyed a few appetizers, smelled the delicious aromas of casseroles, and watched over Christmas dinner. And he didn’t even have to pitch himself off the table in an attempt to calm the dinner conversation. All-in-all, I think he enjoyed himself…until we enjoyed him.

I would just like to ask…would you publish how to make Ollie on here. I would really like to make him for my boyfriends birthday. I’ve been looking for directions for a long time!!
I would just like to say Simmie that I had several slices of this cake and it was delicious! Especially strange since, like you, I don’t like cake very much. I think it was the almond icing that got me. But yeah, we ate him! Now you have to keep bringing spectacular creations 🙂
Oh no! You’ve let out my dirty little secret!
Glad to hear you ate him! I love making cakes for the Medoways, so start thinking of your next request!
