This year my daughter for her birthday wanted a Hello Kitty birthday cake. I disliked baking cupcakes and cakes but I decided to give it a shot since most cakes I purchased at the store tasted horrible, (very dry and super sweet). The good ones where very expensive. So even though I had never made a Hello Kitty cake before, I decided to give it a shot.
I started by purchasing all the materials the day before. I baked two chocolate round cakes and cut the uneven parts after letting it cool down. I added filling to the bottom cake and put the other on top. I covered the whole cake with white icing at first and used a cake spatula to smooth out all sides.
After the cake was completely filled with icing, I traced the pattern of the Hello Kitty image which I printed online. I started with outlining the stenciled image with black decorating gel. After that, I started applying star shapes with tip 16 with regular white icing. Then, I filled the bow part of the Hello Kitty with red icing and the nose filling with yellow. After I had completely filled and made the Hello Kitty image, I reinforced the black gel outline and applied the whiskers. Now, I was starting to like my cake.
The last part I did was to outline the cake with the same tip #16 but with a outward strokes on the bottom edge of the cake and the top part also. The results were better than what I had expected and everybody liked it and complimented my work.
