Product Information

As a huge fan of anything coconut, this snow ball themed cake is one of my favorite cakes on this list! You can easily make a simple cake using a rectangle pan then edge with mini marshmallows to make this cute cake.

Paul introduces us to his fantastic 3D Ice Skate Cake. By constructing a stand that allows the cake to stand upright, Paul really has taken this design to the next level. Let Paul guide you through woodworking techniques – a skill that will make sure your designs stand out from the crowd. Who said you cake has to be blue? Pink cupcakes with cute snowflake sprinkles are perfect for an ice skating party treat. I’ve already included an ombre cake in this list but you can use the recipe for that one to make this pretty design – top with an ice skate topper or something else winter themed.For a bonus detail, cut out the birthday girl’s first initial from light blue fondant. Again, use the yellow guide rings. I ended up putting the fondant E onto the cake board itself later to personalize the cake for Elise. How to make an ice skating birthday cake with free ice skate topper template: Step 1: Bake ice skating birthday cake layers – 2 round, 2 square The 3D Ice Skate cake can be adapted to suit different genders – not to mention different sports – and the skills learned will help you make all kinds of designs. This cake would be brilliant for a birthday celebration or for a fancy sporting event – the possibilities are endless! Here’s a photo of the first cake layer. Add icing between the layers to make a taller cake. I ended up using three layers for my number 1 cake and two layers for my number 0 cake. And by the way, here is the icing recipe that I used. If you’re adding sanding sugar like I did, you’ll want to make a less sweet icing recipe or else the birthday cake will be way too sweet. I thought this icing recipe was OK but you may want to find another not-so-sweet icing recipe. Lay the upper piece of the ice skate cake topper template onto the white fondant and cut out with a sharp paring knife.

I highly recommend baking the birthday cake layers in advance and freeze them until you’re ready to decorate which is what I do with all of my easy birthday cake ideas. As usual, I baked the Cakegirls vanilla cake recipe which I think tastes amazing and is a special once-a-year birthday treat. Follow their instructions twice to make two 8-inch round birthday cakes and two 9-inch square birthday cakes. Elise helped make her own cake a couple of weeks in advance, and we froze the birthday cake layers until closer to her birthday party. Depending on how tall your cake layers are, you’ll want to cut either two or three number 1 cake layers from the square birthday cake. You can also add more cake layers to the ice skating cake to serve more guests.Print my free printable number 1 cake template and place onto the frozen cake. Use a serrated knife to cut out the number 1. And here’s the finished ice skating birthday cake inside the cake box ready to go to the ice skating rink!
