How to Make A Strawberry & White Icing Cake Tutorial

Good morning crafters!

After being up all last night crafting, it seemed like a perfect time for a break & to post a new craft I made just a few hours ago. *Started the first of the post yesterday, so it has been closer to a day since I made it now. Crafting really can be tiring . . .

Anyways, I was working on a beautiful mini strawberry with white icing cake! Although it is a mystery of how it was made, well at least until now! (strawberry with white icing cake with chocolate chip on top shown below)⇓

The pretty cake with white icing in the picture above is actually mainly made out of foam! I cut three circles out in foam sheets then I just used a calk-like substance to cover it in white icing. Luckily I was taking pictures of it while I was creating it just in case I decided to show a quick tutorial on how I made it. It worked out pretty well so, why not show a picture tutorial?

You`ll need:

- 2 or more different colored foam sheets

- scissors

- Calk, Puffy paint, or pretty much any kind of thick substance that can look like icing or whipped cream. I used a substance similar to calk, just a little different. Puffy paint should work the same too.

- Glue (I used Tacky glue, but pretty much any glue should do.

- A mini cake, bottle cap, or anything circle & about the size you want to make your cake. *no need in this if you can draw a straight circle*

- A marker

I decided to start off with a pink foam sheet. First, I put a mini cake on the piece of foam and slightly traced around it with a marker. I also drew in the open part of the cake to have a perfect size for a cake piece.

Finished drawing. I only traced the cake and only drew in the area for the cake piece to know where to cut.

Secondly, I used scissors to cut out the cake and cake slice.

Next, I put the cut out cake shape on top of another piece of foam and cut it out. Now it`s almost exactly the same size as the other piece.

Did the same thing with the piece of cake.

Put one of the pink cake shapes on a white piece of foam to cut it out. So basically repeat step #3 again, just with another color of foam. I chose white, but other colors should work just as good for the inside icing.

I`ve cut out three cake shapes now. Two cake shapes are pink, and the third one is white. Now it`s time to add glue!

In the picture above you  can see how it looks once i glued the cake together. I glued the white cake shape in the middle to make it look like icing inside of the cake. I did the exact same thing to the cake piece.

6.

By this time, the glue had dried enough. I used a toothpick to spread the white icing on the cake!

I mixed the fake white icing with a small touch of red Puffy Paint to turn it into a light pink color. I used another toothpick to spread the pink icing on the strawberry part of the cake. The pink icing gives it a flaky effect.

It is officially finished! Was really so much fun to create the cake and tutorial for it. Hoping to make more tutorials soon.

Hope you like it!
