About this Bake

This is a Gothic cake I made for my best friend’s 30th. It is a red velvet cake covered in a black fondant icing. I used edible paint to create some shading and definition on the skull and cake utensils to mould the teeth. The butterfly and roses are made from modelling icing.

Top tip

The skull and heart were made using puffed rice covered in fondant icing.
