My granddaughter wanted a Piplup cake for her 10th birthday. I have never heard of the character, so I search for other Piplup cakes and images. I could not find one that really excited me, so I made my own. I used to 9 inch round cake to make 3 cakes. One for the head, 1 for the body and 1 for an insert to the body (to make it bigger than the head, and room for the flippers.)
I put on a crumb coating of butter cream, and put it into the fridge for 2 hours. Then I free handed the designed of the character and added the final colored icing with a star tip. Everyone accused me of purchasing the cake from a bakery, but I made the cake, they couldn’t believe it. My granddaughter loved it, and that’s all that counts.
