Stenciled buttercream cake with tempered chocolate spheres

Can you label each of these 8 planets🌎?

Wait, before you say that Saturn 🪐is not there…it is there. I just didn’t put its ring because I failed twice in making it right so I said f-it! 😆 And how ironical that the only emoji for planets are the Earth and Saturn?!

I painted 🎨colored cocoa butter onto the mold, let dry, then filled each mold with the corresponding colored white chocolate to capture the colors and the effects of each planets….Voila!

I grew up watching and I loved it! Remember, I’m a 70’s baby 😉 I’ve learned a lot from Sesame Street….from values to self-respect. And I know that in addition to attending a great school, Sesame Street had helped me speak English fluently.

Did you grow up watching Sesame Street like me? 🙋🏻‍♀️

I am so happy that a client ordered a flamingo🦩cake! Yeah yeah, the flamingo cake was a trend a while ago but I didn’t get the chance to make one 💁🏻‍♀️

This is a buttercream covered cake with fondant and wafer paper details….which is how most of my custom cakes are😊

Fun fact: did you know that flamingos got their pink color from the food they eat and they turn their heads ‘upside down’ to eat?

Interesting, isn’t it?

Happy Monday!
