  • The makings of this Under The Sea Cake ✨🐠🌊 I created most of the sea life (starfish, coral pieces, shells) with a gumpaste mold from @joann_stores 🐚 I added them to a blue ombré frosted cake with crushed graham cracker “sand” and then used @wiltoncakes tips 4B and 104 to add even more color and texture🧜‍♀️ 🎉 if you wanna know exactly how to get the look, I’ve got a detailed tutorial + YouTube video linked in my bio ✨click it! #handmadewithjoann #ad
  • A sprinkled and striped birthday cake to celebrate my sweet sister in law 🥳 feat. @americolor turquoise stripes (created with the @wiltoncakes cake comb) + the prettiest “Hey Sugar” sprinkles by @sprinklepop.shop ✨underneath are layers of delicious coffee cake and vanilla espresso buttercream - birthday girl’s fave 🙌🏽 if you’re a coffee lover, I’ve got the recipes on my blog (search “coffee cake” at sugarandsparrow.com and you’ll find it!)☕️ 🎂 happiest of birthdays @jaceydepaoli 💗
