Coolest Hello Kitty Cake

This Hello Kitty cake is my 4th cake using fondant and my first 3D cake.

Tools I used:

Wilton 3D Cuddly Bear Pan

1 Box of cake mix, any flavor prepared as instructed on box

1 batch of pound cake batter (any recipe)

A Hello Kitty doll you can use to guide your carving. A doll the size of the cake is helpful

Fondant

Pizza cutter for cutting fondant pieces

Food colors

Fondant tools

The cake pan requires 6-1/2 cups of cake batter. I used 3 cups of regular cake mix and 3-1/2 cups of pound cake and mixed them together before pouring inside the bear. The pound cake gives the cake a stiffer consistency for carving the Kitty shape. The inside of the cake is hollow because of the heating core that comes with the pan. After carving, I poked a hole behind the neck and filled the Kitty with chocolate filling.

Once shaped, crumb coat, butter cream, then decorate however you like. I used fondant for that smooth look. The cake ends up being pretty small because of all the cake you carve off. I used my cake as the top of a cupcake tower. I also made Hello Kitty face cookie favors.

My customer was very pleased.

  3. You did an amazing job… I am making my niece a Hello Kitty cake and would love to follow your instructions… did you do the body separate and then the head? or did you apply the fondant in pieces?
