Number Cake Craft - finished cake next to a sample. I have been binge watching NAILED IT on Netflix and I realized cake crafting isn't really easy with limited time. It needs enough time to work on and a crafty mind.

This weekend I tried doing my own Nailed It challenge at home by creating number cakes.

Supplies:

cakes
number pattern
knife
cake frosting
piping bags and tips
food coloring

Steps:

First you need to put the cakes into position where you can easily cut it based on your pattern.
Cut out the printed pattern and place on top of your cake. Choose the best portion where it fits perfectly.

Now, start cutting the cake shape with the pattern on top.

Assemble the cuts to form the number/figure.

Mix your buttercream. It's best to do this while the cake is cooking in the oven to save time. But you still have to cool down the cakes so this might melt over time.

Crumb coat the cake with buttercream before decorating.

Divide frosting into portions and add drop(s) of food coloring in each bowl of frosting. Mix them well.

Yay! Thanks.. It doesn't really look exactly the same with the sample but it makes me proud to see that I'm kind of improving my cake decorating skill..
