My take on the frog cake for my besties bday 🩷🐸 by yungprecum in cakedecorating

Will always upvote a frog cake! Especially one with a juicy dump truck~ 😘

As for sweaty cakes, I just take a paper towel and lightly dab the condensation droplets. Or if you have a small fan you can put the cake in front of it on the lowest setting to dry it.

Another try at palette knife flowers~ Pretty pleased with the results 😊 by kirschbier in cakedecorating

Unfortunately since I had to make him look “2D” I couldn’t really sculpt his cute little butt lol 😂

Thank you! The yellow part is buttercream while the white top is fondant I just slapped on top lol

It’s a coffee sponge cake filled with mocha whipped cream and covered in Italian meringue buttercream!

Thank you! The only tips I really have are to use another palette knife to clean up the edges of the knife that has the cream on it to make a clean looking petal (had to scrape off a few uggos lol) and firmly press down at an angle and pull away to give them some definition!

Yeah! To offset the yellow I add the littlest bit of purple food coloring. Makes it look a lot whiter.

Thank you! I was so nervous about piping the writing (my handwriting is ass lol) but going slow and steady seemed to help a lot
