Gold Dipped Cake

Erica OBrien — Thu, 10 Dec 2015 15:50:41 +0000

Our contributor, Erica OBrien, is back with a new cake technique.... For this cake, I wanted to create something chic and trendy. There are certainly many beautiful gold cakes out there already, but I wanted this cake to appear as if it was actually dipped in gold. For inspiration, I turned to Pinterest, where I not only found beautiful images of items dipped in gold--everything from vases to feathers--but DIYs as well. The method used in the DIYs were very similar to the technique we used for our cake.
