• Frosting

• ½ cup non-fat plain yogurt (per Beef Patty)

• Candles

• Vital Essentials Freeze-Dried Minnows

Instructions:

1. Start by thawing as many Vital Essentials Frozen Beef Patties as you like. Remember to thaw them in the fridge and feed them within 4-5 days, depending on the fridge temperature.

2. Measure and scoop the non-fat plain yogurt onto each thawed Beef Patty, and spread along the top and sides to cover completely. If you’re using more than one patty, stack them to make a layered cake.

3. Sprinkle some Vital Essentials Freeze-Dried Beef Topper (or Chicken or Turkey, if your pup prefers!) over the yogurt-covered patties.

4. Take as many Vital Essentials Freeze-Dried Minnows as you want and place them into the yogurt-covered patty to act as “candles.”

Enjoy!
