I made this Zebra Topsy Turvy Cake for my birthday because I wanted to try and make a Topsy Turvy cake. On top of the cake I piped happy birthday in a funky handwriting. I used one 6′ and two 8′ cakes for the bottom tier. For the top tier I used one 4′ and two 6′ cakes. I carved the cakes to look like they tapered down and angled.
I used a homemade whipped buttercream recipe, which I would not suggest to anyone who is using black on a cake. The colors started to bleed into each other after a few hours. I also froze the cakes for about 15-20 minutes so that way they would be easier to carve.
