Could it be something with the hard white icing, like a Christmas cake??

Hi All

As per the title, I have been asked to make a hard white cake for a
child's birthday and I would appreciate any ideas or recipes.

My ideas so far are to do something based on meringues or biscuits such as
a deep shortbread cake. Alternatively, I could do a chocolate cake using
white chocolate.

The 'hardness' shouldn't be too hard as the child is only 4 so panforte
would be out of the question.

Thanks for your input.

Dave
