Instructions

1. Preparing the Cakes: Start by slicing your cakes in half using a large kitchen knife. Don’t worry too much about getting them perfectly even, as we’ll be covering them in frosting later on. Next, color your buttercream to your desired shade. Remember that the color will deepen over time, so go easy on the coloring if you prefer a lighter hue.
2. Building the Cake Layers: To ensure stability, spread a thin layer of buttercream on your cake board before placing the first cake layer. Then, generously fill each layer with buttercream. Feel free to add extra toppings like caramel or chocolate sauce, and strawberries for added flavor and texture.
3. Frosting the Cake: Using a spatula or bread knife, apply a generous amount of buttercream to the sides and top of the cake. Don’t worry about perfection here—we’ll be smoothing it out later. Once frosted, use a scraper to create clean edges for a polished finish.
4. Adding the Chocolate Drip: Before proceeding, it’s essential to apply a crumb coat—a thin layer of icing that seals in any loose crumbs. Pop the cake in the fridge for a few minutes to set. Next, sharpen the edges to create a clean canvas for the chocolate drip. Warm up the chocolate drip according to the package instructions and gently pour it over the cake, allowing it to cascade down the sides.
5. Decorating with Sprinkles and Piping: Once the chocolate drip has set, it’s time to get creative with sprinkles and piping. Sprinkle the sides of the cake with your favorite sprinkles, removing any large pieces for a smoother finish. Then, fill a piping bag with buttercream and pipe decorative swirls or patterns on top of the cake.
6. Adding Final Touches: To finish off your Bluey cake, adorn it with Bluey-themed decorations like figurines or cake toppers. Strategically place them to cover any imperfections and add a playful touch to your creation.

Decorating and Serving:

Once you’ve finished making your Bluey cake, it’s time to think about presentation. The cake is sure to be the star of the party, but why not take the theme even further? Pair your cake with Bluey Party Supplies like themed plates, cups, and napkins. These extras will help create a cohesive Bluey-themed celebration that will delight both kids and adults.

This placement naturally fits into the flow of the recipe and provides readers with a valuable resource for enhancing their Bluey-themed party.
