    I am an old goth, and a friend back in the 90s baked a coffin cake with black icing for someone's birthday. She used all she had - lots of food colouring. All our mouths were black and it tasted so gross! (the icing, the cake was nice). I love that there's a way to do this in a way that isn't gross!

    Every time you talk about you're love of painting things gold, I get Austin Powers and Goldfinger in my head. "I want to paint it gooooold!" "Can I paint it gold?"
    I love your cakes. Every week, my early Saturday morning is spent with my Watch Later list, built through the week, and you are a must-have part of it. I have saved several recipes and wish listed many of your tools. (I don't have the money or the space for them all lol) I can't wait to try the ginger one. I'm gluten free and I have found the reverse creaming method works best for the butter cakes. I'm hoping I can get good crumb with converting your recipes.

    Others have pointed out that the cake decoration is baroque, not gothic. But there is one gothic element, which is the straws used to support and stabilise the height and weight of the layers. Gothic architecture also used clever techniques to allow them to build higher and higher. Well done you, looks amazing !

      Dina Fmka I guess its somewhere in between in terms of the design and use of the petal tray to make the bottom layer of the cake could represent windows during that period whilst the decorative design could represent ornamenation on the building structures from that period. Represents Romansque, Gothic and Baroque architectural styles. All in all such a beautiful cake.

    I dont get why he put the green scrapes on the bottomtear if he's just gonna spray it black after it????

      You can't see it really well on the video because of the lighting but the paper gave the bottom a crackle texture effect. So it looks cracked like stome. He just did it for the texture

    I always wonder why not paint the gold before the decor goes on so you don't get gold where you don't want it

      the gold won't stay on it if you touch it too much

    This is such a great cake. I've been really interested to try the black cocoa powder. And, I just want to say that watching you spread the frosting was a religious experience. It just looks so decadent and delicious!

    I want to see the folks behind the camera. Stealing garbage cake. Making fun at JJR for what no one totally knows. Drag them into the light.
