Snoopy Belle

Valentine’s Day is just around the corner and what better way to celebrate than with Peanuts—where Sally loves Linus, Charlie Brown loves his Little Red-Haired Girl, and everyone loves Snoopy!

Last Saturday, adorable 10-year-old actress Francesca Capaldi, who stars as Charlie Brown’s beloved Little Red-Haired Girl in the upcoming The Peanuts Movie, hosted a Peanuts-themed Valentine’s Day party with Snoopy and his sister Belle at the Park Hyatt in Carlsbad, California.

Actress Jesssica Capaldi Joined by friends at Peanuts Themed Valentine's Day Party.

Actress Francesca Capaldi puts her heart into her Peanuts Valentine’s cards, which are included in our giveaway along with extra foam hearts and jewels to enhance your card.

“I was really excited to host this early Valentine’s party with Snoopy and his adorable sister Belle —it’s pretty much the best way to celebrate Valentine’s Day, ever!” says Capaldi. “My friends and I had a great time trying on clothes and making Valentine’s…and eating chocolate, of course!”

Francesca, who’s also one of the stars of Disney’s Dog with a Blog, and her friends enjoyed Valentine’s Day card-decorating, delicious cakes and cupcakes, and of course a showing of the classic TV special, Be My Valentine, Charlie Brown.

Sweets for a Sweetie: 10-year-old actress Francesca Capaldi was sweet on the beautiful Snoopy and Belle Valentine’s cakes at her pre-Valentine’s party. You can make this same cake using the Park Hyatt’s recipe, and if you win my giveaway, one of the delicious DecoPac Snoopy or Belle toppings will be included!

Chocolate Cake Recipe:

Ingredients

  1. Flour 3 Cups
  2. Sugar 3 Cups
  3. Salt 1 Tbsp
  4. Baking Soda 1 Tbsp & 1 Tsp
  5. Water (Boiling) ½ Cups
  6. Cocoa Powder ½ Cup
  7. Buttermilk ½ cups
  8. Vegetable Oil 1 Cup
  9. Eggs 3
  10. Vanilla 1 Tbsp

Directions

  •  Combine the buttermilk, oil, eggs and vanilla together with a whisk.
  • Place the flour, sugar, salt, and soda together in a mixing bowl.
  • Using the whip attachment on an electric mixer, add the liquid ingredients that were previously whisked, mix only until smooth.
  • Boil the water and add it to the cocoa powder and whisk until smooth.
  • Add the cocoa mixture to the previous batter.
  • Let the batter sit 10 minutes before filling pans. Fill 2-8″ cake pans that have been greased and floured. Fill pans half full.
  • Bake in oven at 350o for approximately 45 minutes.
  • A knife inserted in the center will come out clean. Cool cakes before using.

Basic Buttercream

Very easy to make, basic buttercream is ideal for icing cupcakes and for piping decorations and borders. It will stay fresh at room temp for 2 days and can be refrigerated for up to 2 weeks.

  • 1 cup butter or margarine, at room temperature
  • ½ cup milk, at room temperature
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract or other desired flavoring
  • 2 pounds confectioners’ sugar
  • Combine all ingredients in a large mixing bowl and mix at slow speed until smooth. If stiffer icing is needed, or if the weather is very warm, add a little more confectioners’ sugar.

Chocolate Buttercream

  • Add ½ cup of unsweetened cocoa and 2 tablespoons of cold strong, coffee

Yields 5 cups, enough to fill and cover one 9”cake or 16-18 cupcakes
