This year for my boyfriend’s 21st birthday, I decided that I wasn’t going to make the same old birthday cake. He loves Batman so I figured I would try my hand at making the Batman birthday cake.
The cake really isn’t anything fancy just your everyday box yellow cake in a 9×11 pan with store bought tube frosting. Originally, I was going to stay on the safe side and just do a simple outline but I couldn’t find the attachment for the frosting that’s meant for writing. I did have the “star” attachment and figured I would either go big or go home.
Before I even got started I went online and found my favorite Batman symbol. Next I frosted the top of my cake with basic white frosting. I then took my frosting knife and gently traced out the outline of my design. After, I filled in the outline of the bat with my frosting by making small stars and then filled in the inside going from one side of the bat to the other in rows. The surrounding oval I actually did free hand!
This is my first attempt at any kind of special design and I am happy with the outcome, this has actually inspired me to look further into cake decorating as a hobby!

That’s how it starts! I started when I was 18 and got a Wilton cake decorating set for graduation. My cakes were always more creative than professional, but were always well received.
I’d never taken a Wilton class till recently (at 53) and really enjoyed it. I’ve honed my skills and look forward to taking more classes now. Good luck in making it a new hobby for you!
