You’ll love this Valentines Day cake design for its simplicity and its beauty! Just bake up your favorite cake recipe and follow the steps below to create a beautiful cake design.
For this cake I whipped up my Classic Vanilla Layer Cake Recipe, though you can use any recipe you like! My Strawberry Chocolate Cake is another great option for this cake design. Just be sure to choose a white frosting like my American Buttercream Recipe as a base to copy this Valentines Day cake design!
how to create this Valentines day Cake Design:
Step 1: Bake the cake and let it cool completely.
Step 2: While the cake is baking, make and color the frosting. You’ll want to reserve about ½ cup of frosting for the red and ½ cup for the pink.
Step 3: Cover the cake in white frosting and refrigerate it until the icing is firm (about 30 minutes). Read my guide on How to Frost a Cake if you need help with this.
Step 4: Remove cake from fridge once the icing is firm to the touch. Using a small offset spatula or a large pallet knife, take some red and pink frosting and spread large sections of colored frosting randomly around the cake.
Step 5: Serve and enjoy!
Happy Decorating!
