Вставка
- Опубліковано 12 гру 2023
- Glittery gothic black buttercream cake with Lambeth style piping and chocolate skulls for a "Death to my Twenties" themed birthday party! I just love this theme for a 30th birthday, or 40th, or 50th, or even those cute weddings that are like... "till death do us part". You know the vibe!
Join me as I walk through all of the steps to achieve this over-the-top piping style, using various techniques and tips. Piping tips used: Wilton 104, Wilton 6B, small open star, small round tip, and small leaf tip.

Also love it when you show piping at real speeds. It's often hard to tell how long this takes in peoples' videos, sets us up for unrealistic comparisons and expectations on how long decorations will take. I'm definitely slower but it makes me feel better that it's not as huge a difference as it can sometimes seem.
Gorgeous All Black Cake as usual, You are a Fabulous Baker Steph. ❤️
New subsciber here! Old home baker. I make cakes in my home for friends and family. I don't sell mine. But my oh my you make beautiful cakes!
2nd like, 1st comment! This cake is perfect for my age 🤣 just entered my twenties. And the cake being gluten free is a big bonus because my brother is cannot eat gluten and wheat 😢 So lucky him!
This is stunning!
10/10. Absolutely nailed it! Best gluten/dairy free cake I’ve ever had!
YAY! Thanks buddy 🙌🙌
Happy birthday, goodbye twenties! 🎉❤ You made the right call on the skulls, totally agree with your creative decision, as they did look clunky (a bit). They look better on top, imbedded in frosting 😊
I love this so much!!!!
Beautiful!
Love it!!!
Love it! That is very cool… and kinda old fashioned looking, except for the skulls and the color!😜❤️
Prettiest and tastiest cake I’ve ever had! Twas deadly 💀
Awesome
loveeee! the consistency and piping looks so good/easy to work with! could you share recipe and technique? i kinda struggle with getting a good piping consistency with my vegan buttercream😅
Dairy free! Love that. How did the buttercream taste? I've made a dairy free chai buttercream before and it definitely tasted good but the chai flavor could have overpowered any "different" taste.
how did you color the icing? Does it get all over peoples teeth/make mouth black? Or did you use the black cocoa?
If I decorate a cake with a basic buttercream 1-2 days before the cake is to be delivered/eaten, Will the cake (crumbcoated) be ok in the fridge for 48h? Google is no help at all, all I find is people arguing. Do I need to put clingfilm on the crumbcoated cake in the fridge?
Do you have to chill the cake in between piping styles? Like does the ruffle need to harden before you pipe the shells on top of the ruffle?
Nope!
Hey! Total cake rookie- but I’m making this for my hubby’s 30th this weekend! About how much frosting do I need to make? I did a batch today and I have 3 tiers of cake currently freezing but I’m realizing I’m going to need a LOT more frosting. How much should I make?
Love that!!! I’ve never made a 3 tiered cake so I honestly can’t say haha sorry! I would guess you’d need at least one batch per tier, but it depends what size they are !
I know this will be to late to help with your husband's cake. But I found a very helpful post on Pinterest that tells how much frosting to make to cover all different sizes of cake. Just remember if you're going to "tort" the cake and an extra third to what you need. Better to have too much than not enough.
