      Hi Ellen! Thank you for watching! ☺️
      This cake was baked in a 9"×13" (1/4 slab) pan and carved to shape.

    Hello, what's kind of cream is the yellow one? Could you make a video where you explain how to do it? Thanks

      I don’t have a video and I do plan to make one, but it’s super simple! It’s just a basic American buttercream recipe but I like to use a 50/50 mix of unsalted butter and shortening. For one batch, whip 1/2 cup butter with 1tbsp vanilla and 1/8 tsp salt in my stand mixer with the paddle attachment , until light and fluffy (approx 10-15 mins) also be sure to scrap sides of bowl often. Then I add 1/2 shortening and whip again until no lumps remain. Next I sift 4 cups of powdered sugar and add the entire thing to my butter mixture all at once. You can add a bit at a time if you prefer but I’m lazy😂 then mix on the lowest speed just until no dry streaks remain. I find adding all the sugar all at once helps to push out some of the air bubbles. Next I add 2-3 tbsp water and blend again until just combined. You can use water, milk, cream, or whatever you prefer but I like to keep it low on the dairy. Next you add your color, for this cake I believe I used Wilton lemon yellow, but I never mix this stage in the blender. I always use a silicon spatula so it also pushes out more of those pesky air bubbles. Hope this is helpful, sry there is no video yet!🙃

      The stuff used to make those items is fondant. The black tool I used to cut them is a craft knife.

      Thank you so much! I don't actually, I just found the cutest picture I could find online, drew it, then cutout each little piece individually to make paper stencils.
