Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325
- Cream butter and sugar, add eggs one at a time
- Combine dry ingredients and add to batter alternating with buttermilk and vanilla
- Prepare pans by spreading lightly with butter and dusting with dried breadcrumbs
- Pour batter into the bottom of your two cake pans, assemble according to direction on your lamb cake mold
- Bake for approximately one hour
- Cool the cake for 10 minutes, remove from pan
- Cool to room temp and refrigerate
- Mix butter, shortening, powdered sugar, vanilla, and just 3 tablespoons of milk, gradually adding more milk until the consistency is similar to light and fluffy mashed potatoes, it should be stiff enough to hold its shape when you pipe it, but soft enough to pipe easily
- Place about 1/2 cup in a small deep bowl and blend in enough milk to make a thick glaze, the texture should be thicker than heavy cream, kind of like a thin pancake batter
- Dip the lambs face into the glaze, covering the face and front side of the ears, and allow the glaze to drip off (I occasionally gave it a wipe to help the process)
- Add a small amount of frosting to the center of your serving platter, place the lamb on top, this will kind of glue it to the plate, I do this with all cakes, but it's especially helpful with this top-heavy cake
- Add a star tip to a piping bag and pipe swirls of frosting onto the lamb's body
- If desired, use food coloring to tint a small amount of the frosting, literally a tablespoon or two, a light pink or peach color, use this to pipe the inside of the ears and nose
- Add jelly beans for eyes, I used a plastic straw and pushed it into the cake where I wanted the eyes to be, it gave me an opening to push the jelly beans into
- Refrigerate until you're ready to put it on the table
EASTER LAMB CAKE
My grandmother started the tradition of making this molded Easter lamb cake when I was little. We continue to make it every Easter. The memory is so special that I keep the lamb mold in my kitchen next to my cookbooks as a decoration. Make sure to grease and flour the mold really well so that the cake does not stick. - Debra Waggoner, Grand Island, Nebraska

Steps:
- First, prepare your mold. Coat with vegetable oil, let sit for a few minutes then wipe clean with a paper towel. Then grease and flour your mold, making sure to get all the little areas.
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Sift the cake flour, then sift again with the baking powder and salt; set aside.
- In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the flour mixture alternately with the milk. Stir the batter until smooth after each addition. Add the vanilla.
- In a large glass or metal mixing bowl, beat egg whites until soft peaks form. Fold 1/3 of the egg whites into the batter to lighten it, then quickly fold in the remaining whites.
- Fill the face side of the mold with batter. Move a wooden spoon through the batter GENTLY, to remove any air pockets. Make sure not to disturb the greased and floured surface of the mold. Put the lid on the mold, making sure it locks or ties together securely so that the steam and rising batter do not force the two sections apart.
- Put the mold on a cookie sheet in a preheated oven for about 1 hour. Test for doneness by inserting a skewer or wooden toothpick through a steam vent. Put the cake, still in the mold, on a rack for about 15 minutes. CAREFULLY, remove the top of the mold. Before you separate the cake from the bottom let it cool for about 5 more minutes so that all the steam can escape and the cake can firm up some more. After removing the rest of the mold, let the cake cool on the rack completely. DO NOT sit the cake upright until completely cooled. Frost with Seven Minute Icing or any other white icing of your choice and decorate to look like a lamb.

10 TIPS FOR THE PERFECT RETRO EASTER LAMB “LAMBIE” CAKE ...
From midcenturymenu.com
- Grease the HECK out of your lamb pan. I cannot stress how important this is. Some of the vintage lamb pans, like mine, have so many tiny details in them that if you don’t get every single nook and cranny, you are going to end up with a disaster on your hands.
- Flouring your pan is MUST! I have to admit, there have been many times when I have greased a cake pan and skipped the flour step, or used homemade pan-ease (which is just flour and shortening mixed) to get everything done in one step.
- Fill your lamb on the “face” side of the mold. Put your lamb face-down on a large cookie sheet or sheet pan. Fill the lamb to just under the rim of the mold with your chosen cake batter.
- Add support to your lamb cake before it is baked. This is time to add your structural support to your lamb cake. One of the recipes that was photocopied from a major cookbook and sent to me stated, in a matter-of-fact way, that the head of your lamb cake was bound to roll off, and not to worry about it.
- Tie your lamb cake mold shut with baker’s twine. I am kind of ashamed to admit that this bit of advice, which I received from multiple wonderful people, was a complete revelation to me.
- Bake cake for the maximum amount of time called for in the recipe. Once your lamb is tied up nice and tight, unless you are lucky enough to have a vintage Renalde mold, there really isn’t a way to check whether or not the lamb cake is done in the center.
- Cool cake properly before removing from mold. Your lamb will crack apart if you try to shake him out too soon. The best method I found is this one: Let your lamb cool for 15 mins after removing it from the oven.
- Loosen edges on the face side completely before trying to de-pan your lamb. Your lamb, if you made it properly, will contain sugar, and sugar is sticky.
- Let your lamb cool completely before trying to frost it. I know, I know. You want to get the little sucker upright now, because you are proud of how he came out in one piece.
- Give your lamb a good base to sit on. The same sharp knife you used to loosen your lamb is useful once again. Use it to cut off the bottom ridge created by the mold.
