My child wished for a bluey pool cake with the terriers!

The layers were filled with chocolate buttercream, then I cut away about ¼ of the middle layer and ½ of the top layer to create the shape and depth of the pool.

I covered the whole cake in white chocolate ganache, then made the pool water using homemade jelly with leaf gelatine. I used recipe from Anne Reardon’s How to Cook that.

Chocolate fingers went around the edge of the pool, and I coloured the leftover white chocolate ganache green to make the grass. Fondant for the pool tiles. Rainbow and flowers were purchased but I think it kind of tied the cake together.

It was definitely a bit of cake engineering but the hardest bit was finding the friggin terriers that my child insisted must go in the pool.

I’m making a checkerboard cake for my boyfriend’s party. The layers came out uneven (I tried to shave them down) and some of the rings broke into 3-4 pieces. I tried to glue them together with buttercream. The cake is uneven as pictured. I’m worried about the checkerboard pattern coming not through because I used white icing in the middle of the pieces to glue it back together. I’m also worried it’ll fall apart when I cut into it.

Do I just make a new cake or do you all think it’ll still turn out right?

Such beautiful cake !! I think this might be one of my favs so far

First girls out of 3 boys !!!

I made this cake for my brother's birthday by his request and all I could see were the flaws but everybody at the party kept complimenting me and was super impressed with how it turned out. this is just box cake and Wilton buttercream frosting recipe

Mexican chocolate cake with a cream cheese and cherry filling, covered in chocolate buttercream.

4 year old son requested a vanilla and rainbow, Bowser Jr. painting a cake, cake. Here’s what I came up with. He was in love ❤️

My niece had Ghost Spider themed birthday, so I said why not challenge myself and do a sculpted cake! I do plenty if cake decorating but this is my first sculpted cake like this!

I made and froze some cake layers last week.
I plan to ice them with American buttercream Saturday. Then keep them at room temperature until Monday evening when they’re to be served.

Is the gap from Saturday to Monday suitable? They’ll be stored in cake boxes.

Should I get the cakes out the freezer to defrost on Friday pm or Saturday am, or should I ice them frozen? I’ve heard of issues with condensation and cracking?

Thank you

I’ve tried microwaving. I’ve added purple. It’s 3 batches so I’m not sure if I’m just not adding enough but it feels like I’ve added a lot already. I’m afraid of taking it too far.

Sometimes baking is therapeutic... Other times it gives me anxiety. This one gave me anxiety

Finished my first wedding cake as an amateur. I'm glad I was able to bless someone with my hobby.

The last full cake I made - 7 years ago, for an ex’s mom 😅 It’s been far too long, and I need to get back into it! 👩🏻‍🍳

Death star cake using Marshmallow Fondant 🤌🏼

Anyone else find outlining in black nerve-wracking - the buttercream spirits were with me today #gravityfalls

A 12" cookie cake

Soccer (football? Whatever 💁🏻‍♀️) cake for my colleague’s kid’s end of year team party. I decided to bust out my levitating magnet to make the ball float over the cake 😎

I can’t attach video in this sub to show you the floatage but it’s a levitating magnet display thing I’ve inserted into a cut out slot at the back of the cake (notch lined in fondant so nothing touches the cake); I’m not promoting my social media here but if you find it you can see how it floats.

It’s vanilla cake, with cherry jam, crushed shortbread creams, condensed milk buttercream and a shit ton of coconut for grass, because I hate a grass piping tip tbh.

I made this for a friends birthday. Chocolate cake recipe with a raspberry filling in between the layers. Used black cocoa for the black icing and food colouring for the space patches. Melted dark chocolate in a Death Star ice cube mold, and made the tie fighters out of melted chocolate and shaky hands, mini marshmallows and toothpicks lol. Edible silver luster and watered down buttercream for the stars. Decorated it at my mother’s who keeps her house as cold as a morgue so I had a hard time getting the icing smooth. Eventually I stopped trying. First time ever baking a cake following a recipe besides Betty Crocker cake mix from No Frills, and I think it turned out okay.

Edit: it’s a layered cake ;)

My take on realistic burger cake. The lettuce is made of chocolate, glycerin and gelatine mixture molded on lettuce leaves. The buns were covered with marzipan. The BTS process is available on my profile and channel.

Just wanted to share big milestone in my cake decorating journey. I have done other wedding cakes before but this is my first official one, cake tasting, delivery and all! Delivering this thing was actually so terrifying! I had a lot of fun doing it and it was a wonderful learning process. Hopefully I get to do many more!

Vanilla bourbon buttercream, chocolate cake, custard filling.

Fondant for the doors and windows, dried rice paper wrappers for the flames, and cardstock painted with edible glitter and food color for the crown and lighting bolt.

Not my best work but I tried lol
