whip the spackle with a bit of water first and it will spread and come out of the piping tip easier, love this idea, definitely going to make some!

I’ve always been a fan of fake desserts! But, they are so expensive and this is a great alternative!

Thanks for posting this project! I can’t wait to make some.

I haven't tried it, but I wonder if an acrylic medium like modeling paste or heavy gel medium would be easier with the sticking-to-the-box portion. Acrylic mediums are usually colorless (some dry transparent, like the gel medium, and some dry opaque, line the modeling paste) and you add acrylic paint to them to make them whatever color you want. Since acrylic paint sticks well to wood, i would expect this to work nicely. :) Your cakes are super cute!

Very nice! So original ❤

Cuuute ideas as usual 😊

Love this! What did you use to make the bows? Like what did you put in the molds??

I used clay that I dyed with acrylic paint. Here's the link- amzn.to/3UXbgP0

cute.

Hey, thanks for a lovely video! Did you seal them after? I wonder if they’d be prone to crumbling. Can’t wait to try it :)

Hi! I didn’t seal them at all. They don’t crumble. At least in my experience. We’ve had lots of kids come over when they’ve been out so they’ve been touched a lot. The only incident is that a bow has fallen off. I just need to glue it back on

Patch n paint different from joint compound?

yes- it's much lighter which is important for this project

Will this stick to any materials?

Is the spackle dusty after it dries?

no. I'm sure over time it will get dusty if left out as most things will

Hi there! So you don’t put the hardware back on?

You can. I didn’t because I didn’t want to ruin any of the “icing.”

You can keep the latches attached. Decorate around them to disguise
