pastel coffin cake | making a vintage pastel goth gothic romance cake

Welcome to a very romantic gothic victorian pastel episode. This week I’m making a pastel coffin cake for spooky season or anytime you may feel like celebrating going gentle into that good night. I’m using my gluten-free chocolate cake recipe and dairy-free swiss meringue buttercream. But honestly you could use boxed. It would still be very good. I use vintage cake decorating techniques to give it that pastel vintage victorian look that I love. Enjoy and rest in peace.
Sorry the camera isnt at the perfect angle! I ddnt expect the cake to be so tall!
Ingredients
1 cake recipe baked in 9x13 pan
vanilla: • dairy-free vanilla but...
chocolate: • fudgy gluten-free choc...
1 batch vanilla buttercream
my recipe here: • best ever vanilla cake...
6 cookies, crumbled (I did homemade miso chocolate chip, but store bought is fine)
To cut coffin shape:
1. measure and mark the cake 3 inches down from top (width-wise)
2. measure 1.5 inches in from the top of the cake (length-wise)
3. match these two measurements are cut equal portions of the corners off the top of the cake
4. measure 2.5 inches in from the bottom of the cake (length wise)
5. match this measurement to your previous mark across the cake (width wise) and cut to complete the coffin shape.

Horror movies scare me too And spooky pictures too Goddamn That picture JUST popped up and it’s so dark and why Just while I was typing this Whatever it is, I didn’t actually see what it was It was enough to make my heart skip a beat 😂

[@LaurenMcGowan]

AJ added it in in post and it scared me too! He claims he used a classic movie scream that’s not not supposed to be scary but I’m suspicious 😒
