Hi, I love your fake cake and cupcake tutorial. I actually made fake cupcakes for props, but after a few months the spackle cracked. Any tips on how to prevent this? Also, when they dry they don't look shinny but kind of dull so I sprayed them with clear acrylic. Thanks for sharing your talent! I hope you see my message and provide some tips to avoid cracked spakle.

[@thepinktree3490]

Monica Lim Hi!My cakes are not shiny either but I just leave it that way!The only time I’ve seen a cake crack was after it dried the ,I’ve never had any crack months after and most times there is no cracks .But when it does crack I just fill in the cracks with the leftover spackle:)Maybe hold on to your leftovers just in case they crack again later down the road !Maybe the sealer has something to do with the cracks too ?Hope I helped you !❤️

How long does it take the “frosting” to dry solid? Does the “frosting” part crack easily?

[@thepinktree3490]

Relish With Re’Cheil Sometimes a crack or two can appear but I just fill it with the leftover spackle.The whole cake will not crack though.I like to give them a good week to dry properly.The thicker the “frosting”the longer it takes:)

I made a chocolate cake. It was beautiful until it dried. It lost its gloss. Can I spray it with a glossy clear spray, or should I frost over the brown with a different color after its cured?

How do you tape it onto the wax paper and then take it off once it is done drying?

Tori Craig I personally wouldn’t do it as it is messy,it dries fast and it will probably crack a lot but that’s only my opinion!LOL
