Use a few drops of colouring to get a nice pastel yellow colour & spoon evenly all over the top of the cake & round the sides. Run a pallet knife round the sides to neaten them up & make sure the icing is evenly distributed.
- Top with your choice of decorations - chocolate mini eggs, fresh fruit, flowers etc.
