Also just a heads up at a lot of craft stores you can find foam that’s already in round shapes if you don’t want to shape it yourself!!

The intro, ICONIC! And yeah, definitely a doughnut.

Ahh thank you Shawna, I went full fembot lol. Please send me pictures of your fake cake! It is far too much fun I made another one last night.

Love your dry tone. I’m making cake toppers, so needed some diy tutorials for a simple “fake” cake for my pictures. This was perfect!

Thank you for this video. You are so fun to watch! You answered so many questions and I learned so much. I have just the place for a fake cake so I might give it a try. Fluffy spackling sounds interesting.

Doing this ASAP it's so cute omg little cakes everywhere 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺💖💖💖💖💖

Love the vintage vibes going on here. I recently started decorating cakes, and gave been wanting to make some fake cakes for practice. Also, this is super off topic, but could you tell me where those glasses are from? I’ve been looking for some large round wire frames, and am having a hard time haha

This was so helpful!! Thank youuuuu

Watched 2024 and was grateful your explanations were simple. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. I am watching youtube to collect information before I create my first bake cake. I would suggest a tall plastic container and insert a piping bag for easier scooping. For lemonade days decorate a table with flowers, pastel colored fake bake, lovely napkins,plates etc. One of the reasons I want to fake bake. Candy land Christmas tree with fake bake cupcakes,lollipops are what I desire as well. Thank you for your videos!!!!!

Thanks for sharing I have always found fake food looks good is a great idea

thank you so much!!

lmao the intro, love this. i'm gonna try.

I love it.

I love your vids! Super fun and inspiring! I'm wanting to make a fake cake on a plastic box. What do recommend to make the plaster stick to plastic?

Stumbled upon your video and its looks awesome! Can you share how you clean your piping tips and bag? Xx

When I try piping the speckle doesn’t want to come out and requires a bunch of pressure making the designs uneven. Any tips?

Is it cheaper to buy the insulation foam and cut your own shapes instead of buying dummy cake rounds?

Your cakes looks amazing. Question, is it secure to put candles with that material? (not the plastic fruits of course 😉).

I have the same question

How are the fumes when you make this? I'm going to do a project for my art class but don't want to kill everyone in the room. Lol

I've been obsessed with trying to make a fake cake for a while now, I'm so happy I saw your youtube video! I have a couple of questions if you can help! If I want to add cherries, pearls, or any kind of embellishments to the cake for decorating if I add it on soon after spreading the spackle on the cake will that ultimately tack it on real good I won't need to worry about it ever falling off? Or should I be gluing these things onto the cake? Also, I was toying around with the idea of making my cake look glossy in a kind of sculpture, ceramicish way, do you know if I could paint resin as a coat on the fake cake or use some kind of sealant or varnish of some kind? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!!

@LaurenMcGowan

Hi Rorie! In my experience I’ve had to use super glue to keep places in place. But if you’re not moving your cake around pressing in the pearls me cherries while it’s wet will work. You can use a gloss spray that you can find in art stores or online. Thanks!

Can water be added to make it smoother

If my spackling is pink but dries white would added paint still change the outcome of the color?🥺❤️

@LaurenMcGowan

2 жыл бұрын

Yes! Just remember if you’re making the spackling pink it will appear more pink than it will when it dries. I use this kind of spackling too!

Do I need to add water for the spackling?

Nope! Just stir it, you can add acrylic paint to thin if you need to. I.e. adding white paint to the spackling for a white cake to make it easier to manage.

You can't make it easier on yourself and use Dollar tree plastic bowls that are bigger and then just throw them away when you're done or wash them and use them specifically for crafting purposes that is what I do
