In community album: Birthday Cakes
A direct steal of CC member AngFox design.  Loved it so much I had to try it.  Leopard print is gel food coloring painted on buttercream. I also dusted gold on the leopard spots...they're showing up as just a light color but they look pretty in real life.   Gum paste bow and roses.  French vanilla cake with raspberry filling.   I used 8", 7 and 6" and carved  to get the inverted look.  I learned I hate to carve cakes!  Too many crumbs.  But, a fun cake.

Leopard Print Birthday Cake for friend.

Love it! Looks great. Also want to know how you painted on buttercream?!

How do I paint on buttercream? Very carefully! :D Actually it's pretty easy. I use a crusting buttercream and put the cake in the freezer until it was solid (I use real butter BC). Then i got my gel colors and lemon extract and a paint palette and just painted it like I was doing a watercolor.--using very light strokes of course. When the cake started warming up II'd just pop it back in the fridge (not freezer this time) to harden again.

Thank you all for the nice comments. AngFox is responsible for the color combo and basic design. I was wanting to do this cake the day I saw hers, and I just put my spin on it. Glad it turned out well for my friend's 50th.Thanks! :D

I love how you carved this cake. It has a cool tapered look.

this is such a cool looking cake. You should do a tutorial on the technique. I think it is so amazing that you painted on buttercream and I can't wait to try it!
