    Also just a heads up at a lot of craft stores you can find foam that’s already in round shapes if you don’t want to shape it yourself!!

    Love the vintage vibes going on here. I recently started decorating cakes, and gave been wanting to make some fake cakes for practice. Also, this is super off topic, but could you tell me where those glasses are from? I’ve been looking for some large round wire frames, and am having a hard time haha

    Watched 2024 and was grateful your explanations were simple. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
    I am watching youtube to collect information before I create my first bake cake. I would suggest a tall plastic container and insert a piping bag for easier scooping.
    For lemonade days decorate a table with flowers, pastel colored fake bake, lovely napkins,plates etc. One of the reasons I want to fake bake. Candy land Christmas tree with fake bake cupcakes,lollipops are what I desire as well.
    Thank you for your videos!!!!!

      Nope! Just stir it, you can add acrylic paint to thin if you need to. I.e. adding white paint to the spackling for a white cake to make it easier to manage.

    I've been obsessed with trying to make a fake cake for a while now, I'm so happy I saw your youtube video! I have a couple of questions if you can help! If I want to add cherries, pearls, or any kind of embellishments to the cake for decorating if I add it on soon after spreading the spackle on the cake will that ultimately tack it on real good I won't need to worry about it ever falling off? Or should I be gluing these things onto the cake? Also, I was toying around with the idea of making my cake look glossy in a kind of sculpture, ceramicish way, do you know if I could paint resin as a coat on the fake cake or use some kind of sealant or varnish of some kind? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!!

    • @LaurenMcGowan
      @LaurenMcGowan  2 роки тому +2

      Hi Rorie!
      In my experience I’ve had to use super glue to keep places in place. But if you’re not moving your cake around pressing in the pearls me cherries while it’s wet will work. You can use a gloss spray that you can find in art stores or online. Thanks!
