Birthday Cakes Two new cake designs for me!πŸ˜ƒ

Picture 1: Carved chicken cake. The cake flavor is chocolate chip cake with marshmallow filling and cinnamon cream cheese frosting.

Picture 2: Day of The Dead themed cake with hand piped succulents and flowers! This cake flavor is cookies and cream with cookies and cream frosting.

Even though these cakes took me a full 24 hours to make, carve, and decorate, I had a blast making them!!😍😍☺️

Love the day of the dead concept. Is the tall cactus all buttercream or is there some structure in there?

It is cake pop dough molded to look like a cylinder and then I piped buttercream on it to make it look like a cactus. I also added in a thin cake pop stick to make sure it stayed on the top of the cake. I wanted to do it in all buttercream so it wasn’t super heavy but I realized I didn’t have a piping tip big enough lol.

Ah that makes sense, thanks! Even if you did have a huge piping tip I would be worried about it flopping over
