Whimsical Kitty
My friend wanted a whimsical kitty cake with yellow eyes to look like her black cat Ben! This was my first attempt ever at a sculpted cake and she LOVED it. I used buttercream, fondant and airbrush technics.. It was fun and I learned a lot of what not to do!
How cute ... great job .. he's so cute :D
The Whimsical Kitty... is that the same artist that lives in New Orleans? If so I've met her! She does cute paintings of cats. Your cake looks just like her cats~ Great job~
I've never met the lady in New Orleans nor have seen her artwork but I'd love to... is she online?
Great job! What did you learn "not to do"? It looks perfect to me, meow!!!!!!
One thing I learned is not to overcoat with the airbrush.(I had to do a lot of dabbing afterwards) Also, I ended up doing the nose three times before I got it right..also I had to work on the shape of the eyes several times When I was done, everything was covered in black and I ran out of paper towels!! I would definetely be more organized so it wouldn't be such a messy process. It was a fun project anyway
now that is a really neat cake!
what size pans did you use to do this? It's really cute, but I'm not sure I could cut up a cake that looked like my own cat! :o
I used the sports ball pan for the body and a 4" round pan that I cut down with a round cutter. The tail is all buttercream
My kids would love that cake! Very cute and well done!
Luvz it!!!! Thank you for sharing your tips ^,,^
