Dipped Strawberry Box Cake- Cake Decorating

I wish this blog had Smell-a-vision! This cake smells amazing! With the dark chocolate dipped strawberries and chocolate icing it's irresistible! It's also incredibly beautiful for a small stacked cake. It's perfect for a small Wedding Cake or sweet Birthday Cake as well. The biggest problem with making this design is having the will power not to eat the strawberries before they are placed on the cake!

Santa and Elves on Waffle Cone Cakes- Cake Decorating- Video

This fun little design came out of the idea of baking cake inside a waffle cone! Each character is iced in Buttercream with it's face and clothes figure piped on. The icing on the platter is Royal Icing to hold the characters in place. See the entire video here.

This worked great to hold the cones up while being filled and baked!

Frozen Themed Stacked Cake with Crown- Cake Decorating

A small stacked cake can have a big impact! This cake is an 8", 6" and 3". Even though it's small it is fully doweled and supported. It's a fun way to have the look of a stacked cake without the size. The trick is the 3" top tier. It's essentially the size of a mega muffin, which could be used here as well. The snowflakes are Candy Melt or White Chocolate, but could easily be done in Royal Icing as well. Tiny Stacked Cakes are the new trend and are fun and easy as long as you know the basic rules of making a stacked cake. In this video I show a review of the basics for stacking and doweling a cake as well as how to create this design.

Cinderella's Carriage Cake- Cake Decorating- video

There is little more magical than Cinderella's Carriage. Leah and I jumped at the chance to create this fun cake idea. I had the idea for weeks before actually jumping in to making the design. I had to contemplate HOW to make this in a way that it would be stable  and sturdy as well as delicate and beautiful. 

The Horses are made of Cand Melt ( White Chocolate). They are quite delicate because of the legs, but easy to make. They are traced on parchment, outlined and filled. We had to make many of these to be sure we had 2 that didn't break.

We wanted the carriage to have the appearance of transforming into Gold, so we airbrushed the "pumpkin" and added gold to the wheels.

Elegant Reindeer Christmas- Cake Decorating- Buttercream

White and Blue add such a soft Wintery look. I just love a winter celebration cake. With White And Blue And Reindeer this design can take you right through New Year.

.

The Piping Technique on this cake is called "over piping" and is a salute to the Lameth Method, indicated by many many layers of piped borders. Many combination of borders are a hallmark of this style. It's time consuming, but well worth the effort.

The Reindeer are made with Candy Melt, but could easily be made with Royal Icing as well. The Candy Melt is a quick and easy way to use this technique and yummy as well!
