A little technical reel for you today! 🎂 This is how I make my stripe cakes. 3 top tips for a flawless finish:

🖤 Get the first layer of stripes perfect. Any air bubbles or gaps will show when you add your second colour.

🖤 Chill before applying the second colour. Put the cake in the fridge for a couple of hours, or the freezer for 20 minutes, so it sets firm. This stops the colour bands from blurring together.

🖤 Keep scraping and trust the process. It looks a mess to start with, but the more you scrape, the cleaner and more defined the stripes become.

For Mum - my no.1 fan, supporter, PR person, kitchen assistant (I could go on - the list would be endless)...happy birthday! ❤️ And there could not be a more fitting cake for an absolute licorice allsorts addict. 😆

I haven't done stripes in such a long time. I forgot how much I love making these. 🤓

A couple of shots of my Conan Gray themed cake, inspired by the 'Wishbone' album cover, for a 14th birthday. On the cover, he carries a giant wishbone and wears a sailors hat with a long red ribbon, so I incorporated this into the design, along with the cloudy night sky backdrop.
