This was such a fun and relatively simple project, it's rare that I finish something in one night. I wrote down some basic steps below, but honestly this is so adaptable, e.g. you could use any clear cup or little bowl and fill them with yogurt and fruit instead. I hope you give it a try and make it your own!
Process:
1. Use candy melts to pipe the red and blue on the inside of some small clear containers. Chill until it's firm, then carefully spread frosting around the inside. You could also just use white chocolate or whipped cream, etc.
2. I filled mine with confetti cake and whipped cream frosting, but again you could fill it with anything you want like fruit, granola, etc. You could even stop here, they're cute already 🥹.
3. To be extra, I added another layer of cake that I'd frosted with pale yellow spikes for that classic Togepi look, plus other details piped with frosting.
We made this chocolate mint Azumarill cake to cap off March Mint Madness over on #Twitch, and of course to celebrate the season! I am absolutely in love with this trans pride flag-inspired colour scheme, which is also perfectly spring-y! Azumarill works so well here, both because of her egg-bunny design, but also that fun fact about Azurill evolution (fkyk)!
My son asked for a Rowlet (German: Bauz) cake for his birthday party this year, as it is his favourite Pokemon. Since he likes neither marzipan nor fondant, I covered the cake in cheese cream.
Of course, hiding Smarties in a funfetti cake is a cheap trick, but it never fails to delight all kids present. ^^
ROWLET CAKE ROWLET CAKE!!!! The frosting is matcha flavored! This piece was based on those vintage 80's style cakes I kept finding on Instagram. The checkerboard pattern in the background is a tablecloth that I scanned. You can buy this print on my Etsy.
This is easily one of my favorite illustrations I made last year ahahaha which is why I got really obnoxious with the tags. (Sorry) Been thinking about sharing some of my process work to show how this materialized.
EDIT: so this particular piece has attracted... perhaps the most engagement that I have ever received on any piece, ever, and that is completely astounding to me. I am so blown away by the reception and the glowing praise from you all and I'm so immensely grateful and humbled. Thank you to everyone who has liked and reblogged this, whether you're a newcomer or a long-time friend who has religiously watched me from the beginning.
I've been working on my personal fakemon region on and off and wanted to show off this line that I just finished! Gnourly and Trollicious are based off of gnomes, trolls, icing, and various kinds of cake. Gnourly evolves into Trollicious depending on its icing color. These guys were super fun to design and I'm very happy with their concept!
It's been a hectic year, but I'm really proud of what I've accomplished. Couldn't even reasonably fit in all my treats from this year into this video, hope I didn't miss anyone's favorite!
Thanks to everyone who's followed along with my experiments, I appreciate your support so much and I hope I've made your year a little sweeter 🥹💕 Here's to more fun creations in 2024!
I will always be a sucker for this dessert, and Scream Tail was the perfect candidate (especially with that alliteration)! Her face is made with chocolate candy melts.
Everyone’s having so many good takes of the boys being the Legendary Dragons and I couldn’t agree more on that ( or maybe I just wanted a pretext to draw them a bit feral )
