Hi, I'm trying to make a 3 dimensional cake (similar to the Debbie Brown cake) and I'm wondering if anyone can give me some direction. Thanks!!!
I just recently made a tree cake about 4 weeks ago for my sons 7th birthday. I used 3 "6 in. rounds stacked with buttercream in between. I rolled some fondant pieces and layed them against the cakes to add a trunk shape coming out from the bottom. Then, I made some chocolate Marshmallow fondant and covered the rounds. I made sure to pull it out from the cake towards the bottom to cover the fondant pieces I put underneath. Then you make marks on the tree with a sharp knife. It was so fun and way easier than I thought. I attached a photo to see what I'm talking about. Good luck with yours!!
