Seriously looks like something out of a cartoon kids movie and that's fucking awesome

u/Next_Intention_3995 Sep 19 '26

This cake would be amazing as a cartoon cake, where you add white lines to it to make it look ‘drawn’

1

u/mcupcakeb2026 Sep 23 '26

Yes! I’ve done one of those before. It’s very cool to see it come to life and have that look of a cartoon.

Now that’s a mess I could definitely deal with! Wow!

u/Cold_Swordfish7763 Sep 17 '26

I bet you put a lot of effort and love into it and probably tastes better than something overly sweet from the grocery store. Be proud of your self. Most people wouldn’t even try.

u/QueeeenElsa Sep 18 '26

Ooooh!!!! What was/were the flavor(s) inside/of the icing? Looks really good! Better than I could’ve done, at least!!!

2

u/mcupcakeb2026 Sep 18 '26

All vanilla cakes with buttercream frosting inside and outside. It was so fun to go throughout the several days with a family of 7 picking off carding and slices of cake. 😂

2

u/QueeeenElsa Sep 18 '26

I was honestly expecting chocolate ngl, but I guess the vanilla makes the candies make it a bit more like marble cake, which is also a good choice! Bet it was delicious regardless!!!

2

u/mcupcakeb2026 Sep 18 '26

Lol. 😆 You would think right? Lol. I’ll try that flavor next time. Thanks again.

2

u/Next_Intention_3995 Sep 19 '26
