White almond cake with a vanilla buttercream.
A Mardi Gras cake for a king cake baby ⚜️

Someone reached out to me to make a smash cake for their little one’s first birthday with a Mardi Gras theme. What should have been an easy cake turned into a nightmare as my colors were turning gray, my icing became soupy, and the height of the cake was just… off.
I scraped the cake, baked another layer and completely remade my buttercream. She ended up loving it and cake number one is now our little secret

    I thought the before cake looked good, but the after is perfect!

    Looks cool! If I had to Nitpick, I wouldve done the top layer purple and the bottom layer green

    I can tell the buttercream was too loose before, something that also would make me have a breakdown. You did amazing!
