This Hello Kitty cake is my 4th cake using fondant and my first 3D cake.
Tools I used:
Wilton 3D Cuddly Bear Pan
1 Box of cake mix, any flavor prepared as instructed on box
1 batch of pound cake batter (any recipe)
A Hello Kitty doll you can use to guide your carving. A doll the size of the cake is helpful
Fondant
Pizza cutter for cutting fondant pieces
Food colors
Fondant tools
The cake pan requires 6-1/2 cups of cake batter. I used 3 cups of regular cake mix and 3-1/2 cups of pound cake and mixed them together before pouring inside the bear. The pound cake gives the cake a stiffer consistency for carving the Kitty shape. The inside of the cake is hollow because of the heating core that comes with the pan. After carving, I poked a hole behind the neck and filled the Kitty with chocolate filling.
Once shaped, crumb coat, butter cream, then decorate however you like. I used fondant for that smooth look. The cake ends up being pretty small because of all the cake you carve off. I used my cake as the top of a cupcake tower. I also made Hello Kitty face cookie favors.
My customer was very pleased.
