DIY: Fabulous Birthday Cake

February 17, 2016 by Patricia Chang in Food, Fashion, diy

For my birthday post, I decided to share with you how to decorate a fabulous, one of a kind, flower cake that will make anyone feel special. And it's actually quite easy! 

First, you can either bake your own cake, or buy a simple cake.

Second, gather your favorite toppings! Consider your color scheme and be creative. I have here fruits, chocolates, macarons, meringues, miniature cupcakes, and more! You can also use popcorn, sliced limes, wrapped candies, donuts, eclairs, cookies, the possibilities are endless.

There's no right way to start! Dive right in.

Play with height for that "over the top" feel.

Lastly, you will need some fresh flowers!

Make sure to rinse them clean with water first.

Use the flowers as "fillers", to fill in between the edible toppings. Have fun loading your cake with all your toppings until the cake it covered the way you like it!

Ta - Da! The finished "work of art".

Time to set the table:

For my birthday, we invited our friends over for a dessert themed party.

These beautiful pastries are from Laduree and Dominique Ansel Bakery in Soho.
