Cat Cake Tutorial

[@SpanoMano]

You make this look so easy. I have a hunch it won’t be if I try it! Thanks for putting out the video!

[@TheRobynsNest]

Thanks! It's not super easy, no, but with some good flexible icing smoothers it makes the job much easier! ☺️

[@Dian658]

Especially because you are expert 👍

[@TheHanification]

Thanks so much for this video! I made it for my boyfriend's birthday and changed the colours to make it look like out tortoiseshell, Mini. It worked a treat 😁

Hi. This is adorable and my daughter, who is obsessed with cats, has a birthday coming up. I was wondering... 1. What liquid did you mix with the gel color to paint? 2. What did you use for the white whiskers?

[@TheRobynsNest]

I only ever use water to dilute my gel colors, I find vodka dries up too fast. And the white whiskers were painted on with white food color

[@gabriellazingaropoli3141]

This is so cute! I would want to put a little stripes on the forehead like darker stripes to look more like my cat but it is so cute I might make the fondant a little bit darker because my cat is more of a gingery color

[@TheRobynsNest]

It all about customization ☺️ so easy to make it your own!

[@rupachristy]

is there a template that I could download?

[@saravtt]

Hi there! I love this cake and the video!I’m definitely going to subscribe. Can I ask where you got the tool to cut the fondant details?!

[@TheRobynsNest]

Thank you so much ❤️ It's an exacto knife. I got it at Michael's art store but Amazon has them too☺️

[@saravtt]

The Robyn's Nest I can never find blades sharp enough and one with a grip. I will look on amazon, thank you!!

[@priyankamandal2526]

@@TheRobynsNest Thank you so much for your response. Fondant won't melt on buttercream? My last cake fondant was melted on buttercream.

[@TheRobynsNest]

You have to use American buttercream, it’s a crusting buttercream and won’t melt the fondant.

[@captainmycaptain4195]

I know this was 3yrs ago...but where did you put the birthday candles?! I will (attempt) to make this cake for my daughter's 5th birthday but just can't picture it with candles. Seems they would ruin the whole idea 😿

[@TheRobynsNest]

I use small pieces of fondant as feet to make the candles stand on the cake board

[@captainmycaptain4195]

@@TheRobynsNest perfect! What a clever idea. Thanks so much 🤩

[@overlord5066]

This looks great! My partner's BDay is coming up, I'd love to give this a crack. I tried googling up the picture you used for the template but I can't find anything similar 😔 Any chance you can help with that? Thanks!

[@TheRobynsNest]

Yup, lemme see if I can find it😉

[@TheRobynsNest]

Here ya go! This the exact one I used but I customized mine to look like my cat! 😆images.app.goo.gl/TwfXJfVNJacFwT5h6

[@overlord5066]

Awesome! you're amazing! thank you so much!!! I'm excited to make this cake now 😍 My partner's going to absolutely love it, I'll have to do it in White though because our little Russian cat is white lol

[@TheRobynsNest]

@@overlord5066 that should make it even easier!😆 It’s a fun cake to make too, enjoy!❤️

[@athompsonlife6596]

It's so cute! Do you have the recipe for this?

[@TheRobynsNest]

No recipe, I cheated a bit with this one...lol. It wasn't for a customer, just my sons birthday and I was pressed for time so I doctored up a chocolate fudge box cake mix. When I do this, I whip my egg whites, make a separate mix with the dry ingredients, the egg yolks, milk and real butter instead of vegetable oil. Then fold that mixture into my whipped egg whites. I also use an extra egg than what it calls for. It always turns out moist, fluffy and delicious! The buttercream is from scratch though! 4 cups powered sugar (sifted) 1/2 cup unsalted butter 1/2 cup shortening 3-4 tbsp. cocoa (I use Fry's cocoa) 1 tbsp. vanilla 5 tbsp. whole milk & a pinch of salt depending on the humidity sometimes I have to add a couple more tbsp. of milk to make it smooth enough to spread. Hope this was helpful!

[@athompsonlife6596]

[@mitziembile9246]

It's so nice! I have a neice who loves cat and i'm planning to bake one for her. Would you mind if i ask where did you get your cat drawing or the one you used to trace? I'd appreciate if you answer. Thank you

This looks great. I have a few questions if you dont mind? What did you use for the white lines and the brown fur?

[@TheRobynsNest]

Don't mind at all,... The white and darker orange fur are both gel food color mixed with a touch of water

How much fondant was needed to cover this cake?

[@TheRobynsNest]

I’m not sure exactly but 400-500g should be sufficient.

[@selinaiqbal76]

how big is the cake at the beginning

[@TheRobynsNest]

That would be a 10” round I believe, if memory serves me correct.

i have another question tho, will i be able to replace the fondant with cream since i dont like the taste of fondant and my frosting skills are okay?

@@yeahysysysys912 I don't see why not. Give it a go!
