When you're planning a birthday party for a loved one, there are a lot of decisions to consider. Between finding the perfect decorations, wrapping their gift, and brainstorming fun activities, there's one thing that cannot be forgotten: The cake!
In fact, you could probably forget all the other stuff and still make the birthday boy or girl smile with their favorite confection. Though most of us aren't professional bakers who are able to whip up a majestic treat within a moment's notice, there are still plenty of tricks for creating your own unique crowd-pleaser.
Even ideas that seem super complicated when you first see them can surprise you by how easy they are, like the colorful Finding Dory cake. The example below definitely fits into that category, too!
Using bright, beautiful shades of batter, Vanessa from Cake Style uses a few simple steps to turn her cheesecake into a gorgeous rainbow unicorn. The swirling effect looks like it would be a pain to create, but it's there's actually nothing to it.
What really makes the whole thing pop, though, is how she uses dusty pink fairy floss for the unicorn's mane on top. The sugary fibers are similar to cotton candy and should only be applied right before the cake is served. Otherwise, they might disappear, and no one wants to see a bald unicorn.
Add to that the glittery, golden horn made of modeling chocolate, and you've got a treat that is totally perfect for any party!
Take a look below to see her step-by-step guide.
And don't forget to SHARE the amazing idea with your friends!
