\"Shopkins<\/a>Daily Creativity: Shopkins cake<\/h2>\n

Yesterday’s Daily Creativity is a cake, a Shopkins Birthday Cake. My niece’s birthday is tomorrow, but we celebrated her birthday today. I couldn’t post this yesterday, because I was up there visiting. You can expect to see today’s Daily Creativity in a forthcoming post. I’ll be drawing it once I finish writing this.<\/p>\n

She wanted a cake of her favorite Shopkins toy. What are Shopkins? \u00a0I don’t get them at all, but it seems to be a collectable toy series with some cartoons to go with it. Everything you can think of, is a person. Some of it is really weird to me, like the poor kiwi who has had someone cut into it. \u00a0I don’t always have to understand what they are into to make them a fun cake. \u00a0BTW, she and her guests loved the cake, and the parents too.\"Shopkins<\/a><\/p>\n

I’ve been making custom cakes since high school, improving my techniques as I go along. It’s a lot of fun and pretty creative when you have to figure out how to make something out of food. I once made a Leopard I tank out of cake and cookies. \u00a0One of the things that is important to me when I make my cakes is that they are as tasty as they are pretty. I worked for a baker who had beautiful cakes, but the flavor of the most complex cakes was nothing great. Don’t get me wrong, it tasted better than a lot of other fancy cake makers, some of the really expensive wedding cakes tasted like cardboard, but they weren’t like mine. My cakes are always moist and I aim for light feeling too. His couldn’t be moist, they would have crushed under the weight and they needed to be made ahead of time. Sometimes I have failures, I made a massive TARDIS cake for Dr Who’s 50th anniversary, and it caved in. I’ve learned from that, next time I’d make the TARDIS out of rice kristpy\u00a0treats and build a cake around it.<\/p>\n

\"Shopkins<\/a>This cake is a white cake with funfetti inside. I stacked it 5 layers high and made the layers gradient (or ombre) from pink to white. The frosting is mostly sugar, normally I prefer whipped cream, but not when I have to travel three hours with the cake. The fondant I made myself. I normally don’t like fondant in taste, that was until I started making my own. I make it with marshmallows and sugar, so it’s very sweet, but better than other fondant. They eyes are made from black licorice.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
