A wisk and some elbow grease is the way to go
No need to buy any expensive fancy equipment, just a cheap metal wisk and some prepackaged cake mix will make some great memories
That’s a good point and- ooh look a butterfly!
Absolutely, I could still have done what @Gormadt@lemmy.blahaj.zone said in time, but I made this meme instead.
Store-bought packed cake it is, then. Some cake decoration & food pens.
Don’t get me wrong, those home made cakes are usually made day of when I make them. And usually a little later in the day than they should be lol
People love hot cakes!
The gooey frosting is was does it for me on those fresh cakes
A slightly gooey chocolate frosting is fire
The struggle is real haha
Mayonnaise cake is another option to minimize elbow grease.
Life hack for OP and anyone else who ends up in this situation:
- Take boxed cake mix of your choosing.
- MOSTLY follow the package instructions. However:
- Add one extra egg (for example, if it calls for 2 eggs use 3)
- Substitute oil with 2x butter (for example, if the recipe asks for ⅓ cup oil use ⅔ cup melted butter.)
- Simple, easy, pro-tier cake.
That one year where I was buying a new piece of kitchen equipment right before every holiday 😅
