Hey, it's Joshua John Russell. To get started we first need to ice the cake with buttercream.

This is just going to be your base color. In this case, I'm using white.

Next, using a pastry bag, pipe a messy line of color around the bottom of the cake.

Then pipe a secondary color.

Now, smooth the cake again while dragging the colors along.

Let's add some ganache. And you can do this with Candy Melts, but once they set,

the cake will be difficult to cut into. So I am going to use a mixture of white chocolate

ganache, candy melts, and gel color. Just melt the ganache with a small amount

Just melt the ganache with a small amount of candy melts.

And then add gel color to achieve the right hue. You can use oil based color here, too.

Now it's time to pour the ganache over the cake.

This is a dripping effect, so you don't want to cover the whole cake.

I like to use a squeeze bottle so you can control the flow of ganache.

To finish, add a few fun candy pieces and some meringues!

How cool is that!
