Man I'm getting some pretty sweet use out of my heart shaped cake pan. The thing is on FIRE with inspiring me for cakey fun ideas! Guys, I know Val-day is totally over but hearts are FOREVER.
This sweet pastel number I made for the adorable little 6 year old Ava on her birthday! It was such a cute cake idea I decided to turn it into a pretty DIY for you all. You'll need a heart shaped cake pan, your favourite cake recipe and three piping bags fitted with a Wilton 4B tip and buttercream tinted in three pastel colours. I just went wild with no rhyme or reason with my buttercream drop star piping - pink here, purple here, blue here... you can always be more disciplined than that... but I like the playful randomness of it!

I love the photos where there are sporadic pompons on top. Maybe you could play with negative space and leave an interesting shape behind?
Caroline! Yes that's a fun idea for sure! Thanks for stopping by!
Dear Lyndsay,
the last weeks have been chaotic for me, but now I read your posts that I've missed ...
For example, I missed the Red Panda cake, it is so cool. I love Red Pandas.
And your Valentine's Day Heart Cake is so sweet, you can feel the love in the air ...
And this cake for Ava is also great. I like this chaotic arranged drop stars. Even this thy cake is beautiful.
Greetings
Natalia
