Love + Permit Them Swallow Cake | I Cake Iii Ways

I'm dorsum amongst my instant edition of One Cake Two Ways (only this fourth dimension it's three) as well as inwards celebration of Valentine's Day this weekend! I wanted to brand a fun gear upward of cakes for this as well as thence a 3rd was added (a chocolate version) but to brand things fifty-fifty to a greater extent than sweet!

So for this decorating gear upward of cakes nosotros accept 1 shop bought-looking cake, (just because they are thence retro cool as well as fun), a existent life version of a cake from an one-time video game our boy used to play every bit a boy, called Ollo (in business office of the game, Ollo gets to decorate a cake which has these extra large rosettes on them) as well as and then a chocolate nutella as well as almond cake, amongst chocolate cupcakes to circular it all out! So possibly that's actually 4 ways!

1. For the LOVE Cake
I used the Butter Baked Goods buttercream frosting recipe to H2O ice all of these (a favourite roughly here), as well as used my 6.5" cake pans for smaller cakes. These are pretty straightforward but for those interested, I but used 1 cake recipe (mix) for each cake. And one-half of the buttercream frosting recipe to H2O ice each one. You tin discovery the recipes here. I used a star icing tip for the sides of the "love" cake, a writing tip for the script as well as sprinkles amongst a few gilt hearts. There are ii colours of icing, a hot pinkish as well as a brighter virtually magenta pink.

For the "OLLO" Cake
For the decorating of this, again, I but used the larger star tip, exclusively swirling into a rosette-style decoration, topped amongst sprinkles. I used a exceptional icing decorating gear upward from Wilton, called Color Swirl, which allows for you lot to pipage 2-3 unlike colors at 1 time. I mixed a hot pinkish as well as magenta pinkish together. Click here to encounter the decorating set.

For the CHOCOLATE cake
It's chocolate cake, amongst Nutella inwards betwixt the layers as well as on the top. I left the sides naked. And sprinkled amongst some toasted almond slices. So easy!
