A Glow in the Dark Cake
Kaira was turning the BIG
1-0 and her mum was going to surprise her by having a glow in the dark party
and of course she wanted a glow in the dark cake to complete her vision. Now I
must say I have come a long way in the past seven months, I have carved, stacked
and doweled cakes. I have done things to cakes that I didn’t think I
could do. And with each cake bake, my confidence has grown: A Ninjago
Lloyd cake, I can hack that. Oh! The Places You’ll Go Cake, I can hack that. A
Mickey Mouse Roadster Cake, I can hack that; but a glow in the dark cake, can I
hack that?
In my usual fashion, I
turned to my trusted YouTube to find a glow in the dark cake tutorial and to my
utter surprise I couldn’t find one. I found some interesting videos on YouTube,
but no glow in the dark tutorial using fondant. Usually at this time, I
begin to panic but hey I still believed I could pull it off. So I read lots of
interesting blogs and after a couple of weeks, I stumbled onto Rolkem Lumo
Edible Dust. It can be added to fondant to make it glow under black light. I
was so excited that I quickly ordered some from Etsy.
While I waited for my order
to arrive, I tried to imagine what type of cake I would make. A paint splatter
cake seemed to be the trend with glow in the dark parties but Kaira wanted
flowers in pink and purple. So I took a chance and decided to make a cake with
flowers all around.
Let it glow, let it glow
and indeed it Glowed.
A Glow in the Dark Cake, I can definitely hack that.
