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.

"Frozen" Castle Cake in Butter Cream

"Frozen" Castle Cake is made with a 10" round base cake, the towers are made from "Ding Dongs" and Mini Chocolate Covered Donuts. These were chosen for their size and stability. The tops of the towers are ice cream and waffle cones dipped in candy melt. The top tower is 2, 3 inch Mega Muffin. The snowflakes are candy melt.
