for something Hello Kitty, and I’ve been getting these requests for weeks, so

I was like, OK, before I start doing creepy Halloween stuff, I’m gonna do something

Hello Kitty.

Hello Kitty!

I went to Michaels and I found this really cute Kitty cake pan, and I think it

was like, $10, I’ll put a link below so that you can go order it and check it

out if you’re interested. Da-na-new!

So today, we are gonna make a Hello Kitty Cake!

The things that you’ll need today will be: a big mixing bowl, electric beater, or

you can use a whisk, whatever you want, spatula, 1/3 cup of butter, a cup of water,

3 eggs, I’m using yellow box cake mix, but you can use any of your favorite recipes,

just make sure that the cake mix doesn’t have anything chunky like large chocolate

chips, or nuts, you want a very smooth cake batter. Because we’re gonna be

using fondant. And Pam baking spray, but you can use Crisco or anything else to

coat your pan.

Let’s get started!

Once your batter is done you’re gonna preheat the oven to 325, and you’re gonna bake

for about 35 minutes.

We’re also going to grease the Hello Kitty baking pan, make sure to get all the corners…

And then you’re just going to pour in a bunch of batter!

Ahhhhhh, waterfall of batter!

And then we put it in the oven!

So, while that’s baking, fun fact, we got a new piece of art in the kitchen,

you have to check it out!

Uh, my roommate Dodger ordered this, its 1 of her favorite artists, 2 hipster

Hobbits drinking coffee. I really like it because her and I both really, really

like coffee, we’re from the Northwest so we kind of love Starbucks, so…

And they’re both Hobbits, and we’re both really small, so we’re like, it’s us!

And this ones saying, it comes in Venti, I’m so getting one! So this is the new

fancy piece of art in the kitchen!

I was like, these walls look so bare, I used to have Rosie the Riveter over here

but, uh, she fell off the wall. I think actually Day9, I think he knocked it

off the wall and it broke or something. I’m not sure, it was on an episode of

Nerdy Nummies, this is a dangerous wall.

Cakes readys!

To decorate! I looks so cute! It came out of the oven, make sure it’s had

plenty of time to cool, and then I took a cake leveler and I leveled it so

that it’s all the same. And now we are going to frost. I am using a vanilla

buttercream frosting. You want to use thick and creamy frostings because they

really make the best substrate to lay fondant on. The whipped are a little too

light and they kind of move around too much.

And you’re just gonna take a glob and frost the entire cake.

Once your cake is completely frosted, it’s time to roll out the

white fondant and put it on top.

I put the fondant on top of wax paper and then I coated it with a little bit

of powdered sugar, so that the fondant doesn’t stick to the table.

Roll it over the top!

Boom!

And then you’re just gonna go along the sides of your cake. Push down, connecting

the fondant to the frosting. Then you go along the edges and cut off the

excess fondant. I’m using a little, uh, roll-y cutter and going around.

Ta-da! Here is the white fondant all on top of the cake. And the next thing we’re

gonna do is make her red bow out of red fondant.

Now I’m taking the red fondant, I’m gonna roll it out,

just a little, just a little bit. Just a little bit!

Take a pinch of powdered sugar, just a little, put it in the corner where the bow

is, because we’re gonna mold the fondant to look just like the bow!

Give, give it a little pfft, pfft! Yeah, to get the excess out of there.

And in your face is the best, pfft, pfft!

Way to bake!

Pfft!

Now we’re gonna take the red fondant, we’re just gonna press it in there, and then

what we’re gonna do is peel it up, and it will have that mold in there,

and then we’ll cut it out and put it on the cake.

Don’t worry if there’s powdered sugar on top of you fondant, because you can just

take a paper towel and just brush it off, because it’s just sugar, doesn’t matter,

no big deal!

Now, the final decoration step, we’re just gonna add a little bit of frosting for

her eyes, nose and whiskers!

Little kitty cat!

Ta-da! Here’s our Hello Kitty Cake! She’s so cute! I love her big bow,

yum-num-num-num-num!

Aw!
