To everyone who is impressed by my awesome cake baking skills, making cakes is easier than you think. To everyone who cant bake anything, you can still follow directions. To the people who can't make cakes, you are the cake deprived. I feel so sorry for you. However, fear not. You can make a two tiered cake with relative ease.
1. Go to the supermarket
Such as Walmart
2. Get a cake mix box
My go to is Betty Crocker cake mix
3. Follow the directions on the cake box
On the box, it tells you what you need. Eggs, water, vegetable oil. Mix it and you now have cake batter
4. Put the cake batter into two pans
One of the pans should be larger than the other pan. This allows you to make a two tiered cake. Prior putting the cake batter, butter the sides of the pan so it allows you to take out the cake.
5. Put it in the oven and wait
6. Take them out and wait for them to cool
The pan will be extremely hot. Before you handle the cake you have to wait till the pan itself is close to room temperature.
7. Flip the bigger cake over and use a knife to cut off the top.
This makes the cake level. Leveling the cake allows more stability for stacking the next layer(s)
.
This is a cake I made and you can see that the yellow cake is leveled.
8. Get Icing
Even the dollar store has icing.
9. Put icing between the first and second tier (or layer)
This makes the cake stick. Icing is glue and if you want anything to stick you need a little glue. (It doesn't mean to put actual glue...)
10. Flip over the smaller cake on top.
Congratulations. You made a two tiered cake! (Whaaat. Crazy)
11. Make it Pretty.
You can get tips to make the icing pretty For example,
This is a two tiered cake I made. I used an icing tip to cover the whole entire cake with rosettes. (Rosettes are the swirly things. They look like little roses.) After, I stuck some strawberries on the side and used melting chocolate to make the writing and the cake topper.
If this is too much, you can frost the top and call it a day.
Lastly, you can just stick fruit on it.
You can also take frosting, put it in a Ziploc bag and then cut the corner a little. This allows a simple but elegant style shown below.
At the end of the day, be proud of yourself because you just made a fugding cake.
