Baker's Coconut ~ Animal Cut-Up Cakes Booklet [1959] | Retro Musings

This is the entire booklet -- second in a series from Baker's Angel Flake Coconut -- with patterns for cutting round or rectangular cakes and arranging the pieces to make animals. I can remember Mom making the rocking horse (with the Life Savers polka dots), the butterfly, and the terrier. The booklet's font and the cake designs are decidedly Mid-Century Modern. The original 1956 Baker's Cut-Up Cakes booklet and Baker's ads from 1961-62 featuring Cut-Up Cakes are also online. More about Baker's Cut-Up Cakes on the Food Company Cookbooks blog and Krystina Evans's Bit-O-Me blog.
