Instructions
Step 1
Choose ideas for decorating a birthday cake based on the interests and hobbies of your child. For example, a boy attending the football section can be presented with a cake in the form of a soccer ball, and for a girl, decorate the cake with a doll, which will also be a gift for her.
Step 2
Make a hemispherical cake like an anthill cake. Top it with butter cream or condensed milk. Prepare white and black mastic. Draw pentagons and hexagons on paper. Roll the mastic into a thin layer and cut the figures out according to the templates. Then glue the entire surface of the cake with mastic polygons. Similarly, you can arrange a cake in the form of a ladybug, a bee.
Step 3
Wrap the doll up to the waist with cardboard and tape in several places. Cover the cardboard with foil on top. Put the doll's hair up and wrap it with plastic wrap. Fold round biscuit cakes of different diameters in the form of a cone, saturating them with syrup and smearing them with cream. Cut a hole in the middle of each cake that is larger than the wrapped doll. Place the doll in the finished cake. Leave the cake in a cool place for a few hours until it hardens. Then decorate in the form of a skirt with colored cream, mastic or marzipan.
Step 4
Give the cake the shape of a figure corresponding to the age of the little birthday boy. To do this, bake a few cakes. Cut out the desired number in full size on the cardboard. Cut each cake according to the pattern and lay on top of each other, smearing with cream. Top with cream, whipped cream, frosting and candles as desired.
Step 5
Decorate children's cakes with sugar paste, marzipan. You can form any figures from them as you wish from plasticine. Draw patterns - stars, hearts, balls; or more complex - cartoon characters, fairy tales. Then cut them out of rolled mastic of different colors and glue them on the cake.
