Bake Your Cakes

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit then line your pans with parchment paper. Prepare 8lbs of my ultimate vanilla cake then divide the batter into 3 portions. Dye one part a light pink and another a darker pink - leaving one part uncolored. To create the marbling effect, dollop portions of each color into your pans then drag a knife through the batter vertically and horizontally - be sure not to overmix, until you are satisfied with the look. Bake each pan for 1 hour.

TIP: Let your cakes cool completely in their pans before removing.

Level and Decaramelize

Remove your cakes from their pans then level each one and remove the caramelization from the bottoms. Cut your cakes to size and trim away the caramelization as you do so:

Width: 8”

Length: 12”

Height: 5”

Rounded Corners and Top

Use a circle cutter as a template to cut round corners then carefully round off the top of the cake to create a raised centre.

Keep It Simple!

Use Sir Squeeze A Lot to soak both of your cake layers with simple syrup then let them sit for a couple of minutes to fully absorb.

Fill & Stack

Fill your cakes with Italian meringue buttercream with the rounded sides facing out and flat sides together.

Crumb Coat & Chill → Ice Ice Cakey

Crumb coat your cake with more IMBC then chill until firm. Once you’ve removed your cake, ice once again and chill.

Marbled Fondant

Roll your pink fondant into 4 cords and white into 3 cords. Line them up in alternating colors then twist the fondant together and knead slightly. Cut the twists into 4 strips - the best marbling will be in the cross section. Line up the strips then press them together and smooth the surface with your palm. Roll out the fondant into a rectangle larger than your cake then drape it over and smooth it out. Cut away any excess and tuck

Details

Create a “frame” at the top of your cake by using a ruler as a space and a sculpting tool to gently indent the fondant.

Lather Up!

Use your letter cutter to brand your bar of soap however you’d like. I chose to use my cutters to impress “LATHER UP” on my cake.

Soap Dish

Move your cake to a platter then paint the entire surface with clear piping gel to give the surface a shine.

Pink Bubbles

Add a drop of pink coloring to your milk then froth it - I used a cappuccino machine to create a pink milk foam. Use a spoon to add it all over and around your cake for bubbles as if it had just been used to LATHER UP!
