Cake Friday: Baby Reveal Tadaaaaaa!

Baby reveal cakes are the latest trends in finding out the sex of the baby. Many customers will have their doctor put the sex of the baby in an envelope and bring it to us to create a reveal cake. Here at The Cake Boutique we make about one reveal cake/ cupcakes a week. We dye the cake or filling pink or blue, so when the parents cut into the cake the inside cake or filling color represents the sex of the baby. We have also stuffed cupcakes with colored icing. Both of these are super cute and a fun way to learn the sex of the baby. Today's cake friday cake is premiering a new kind of baby reveal cake! Check out the pictures to see how this cake is done!

The center of cake is cut out with a circle cutter.

The layers of cake are stacked and filled.

Next, pink sixlets are put into the center
 for the surprise later to come.

The top of the cake is placed on with some buttercream.

Next, the cake is "dirty" iced.

Pink icing is made using a touch of food coloring.

A piping bag is filled half way.

Half of the cake is iced with pink rosettes.

The other half is iced with blue rosettes.

Silver dragees are dropped onto
 the cake to add a little sparkle!

They are placed on the sides as well.

Polka dots are cut out and added to a white bow.

Legs of the bow are cut using an accordion cutter. 

Polka dots are added to the legs.

Using a rolling pin they are smoothed out.

Using a touch of water the bow is
 prepared to be placed on the cake.

Using edible food coloring a
"He or She..What Will it Be" sign is made.
