Thanks guys for watching! I know the fad is passing, but I thought I would get in anyway with this unicorn decorated cake ;)

FOR THE MINI CAKE VERISION, VISIT:

In these video tutorials, I normally use Bakels Premixes to save on time.
(Bakels is a bakery grade cake premix. Another great one is Allied Mills)

If you prefer to bake from scratch, I do have a range of awesome cake recipes here which convert to cupcake recipes very nicely too.

MUD CAKE:

WHITE CHOCOLATE MUD:

CHOCOLATE BUTTER BASED CAKE:

RED VELVET BUTTER BASED CAKE:

VANILLA BUTTER BASED CAKE:

I use these butter based cakes above because they are sturdy under fondant and stable at room temperature, as are the muds.

SOFT SPONGE CAKE:

AMERICAN BUTTERCREAM RECIPE:

Thanks again for tuning in! I will catch you again on Saturday for a bonus something unicorn related ;)

Hi, Rosie. Your unicorn cake looks simply adorable. It's one of the biggest trends on YouTube.

[janedoe]

Thank you for sharing your lovely video. My daughter - in - law just asked me to make a “Princess Unicorn” for my Granddaughter’s First Birthday! I’ve watched several videos about unicorn cakes and your’s most direct and loveliest. I’m just need to add a fondant gold Crown or tiara to the front of the unicorn’s horn.

Thank you so much! Now I am ready to make a unicorn cake for a birthday girl this Saturday. God bless❤️

My friend asked me to make a unicorn cake for her daughter's birthday! I love making cakes but this was a new one for me - your tutorial was very helpful! I tried making the horn two ways and the way you demonstrated with the two "carrots" worked perfectly! Great tutorial - I had a lot of fun making this cake! :)

[lynnjepson]

Rosie, again, a great tutorial. Don't worry about the "fad" going by. There will always be plenty of little girls (and we older ones, lol) who still love unicorns!

So cute. Your attention to detail really makes a big difference. I love the twisted horn and the little cutters for the eyes.

Thanks Rosie for the tutorial. I'm about to make one of these myself for a customer. There are some really helpful tips in your video. xo

[littlecakesbyb]

Very cute! Unicorn cakes are fun to make and eat!

[michaelahasakova]

Nice cake, I am a beginner, do you have any recipe for the frosting, pls? It looks amazing, so smooth and good-shaped.. Is it kind of buttercream or swiss creame? Thanks a lot 😊😊

[RachelsEnchantingCakes]

Such a beautiful cake and still trending now, I think the Unicorn Cake is here to stay x

[cluedobox]

So cute I love this and all of your videos.

Rosanna Pansino didnt invent the idea. The idea was made in 2016 by someone else. It's not copying, it's just popular.
Good job Rosie!

[katewelsh]

this might be a silly question bit how do you. lean up the board? I can never seem to get right to the cake without touching it

[ivancubela]

what did you coat the cake with? and how did you make those flowers so beautifully wow 😍

[donnaruvich]

these unicorn cake designs are so cute!

[Elladanna]

This might be a dumb question but, do you also refrigerate the buttercream while you put the cake with the first layer into the refrigerator for 20 min or do you just leave it out?

[anasandoval]

i love the cake you made because i love unicorns
