The cake that we are working with today consists of 8″ & 6″ stacked tiers, frosted with our Fluffy Vanilla Buttercream recipe. The tiers are stacked as usual, with 4 bubble tea straws beneath the top tier. Each tier is on it’s own cake board.

Fondant
Tylose Powder (I like to add a little to my fondant as an optional but helpful step to speed along dry times and add elasticity)
Coloring Gels: Use whatever you like. We used Wilton Rose, Americolor Electric Green, & Lemon Yellow
Black Coloring Pen for the Owl’s eyes
Letter Mold- Optional. We used a Martha Stewart Mold (affiliate)
Circle Cutter (Ours was 2 1/4 inches. Use whatever size you like.)
Piping Tips- 2D and standard size tip for cutting our circles, Tip 2 for balloon strands, Tip 4 for bead border, Tip 12 for balloons

the martha stewart letter mold doesn’t come up when I tried to purchase this… do you know where I can buy this?
Hi Susan, I’m sorry, I see what you mean. It looks like the link above has changed to a different product. I’m afraid it may have been discontinued. You may be able to find similar silicone letter molds elsewhere, but I will let you know if I’m able to locate one!
