This is a quick tutorial of how to do leopard print inside of a cake or cupcake. I was in the middle of making other cupcakes and decided to make 2 leopard print cupcakes just for this tutorial. So, please keep that in mind. The end result of your cake or cupcake will be much better if you add more than 3 spots. I just did 2-3 just to make it quick. I hope you enjoy and please feel free to ask questions.

Step 1) Make 3 different colors of cake batter. You can either use yellow & chocolate cake & color them accordingly ORyou can use gel color and color the cake batters accordingly.
Step 2) Divide your cake batter into 3 and place the Black cake mix in one pastry bag, brown in the 2nd pastry bag and keep the rest in the mixing bowl

|
Step 3) On the bottom of your EMPTY cake pan or cupcake liner, draw/pipe the spots. |
|
Step 4) Top the 1st set of spots with the lightest cake batter and just repeat the process, alternating between making the spots & topping them off with batter.

Step 4 continued |

Inside of Cupcake |
End result is a leopard print pattern on the bottom, middle & top of your cake/cupcakes. It literally takes a few mins. You don't have to be neat either. Just have fun with it. ****If you are making a cake, you can pipe/draw the spots small b/c they will enlarge as the cake bakes.

This was done with red and black cake batter. As you can see, the more spots you add, the prettier it'll turn out. |

ReplyDeleteI Did Have A Question Though. On Alot Of Other Tutorial&Articles I Heard Alot About Making A Thicker Batter Because The Print Wont Come Out. Did You Also Make A Thicker Batter Or Is The Store Bought Box Batter Ok To Use?
Hi Amber, I never really paid attention to the thickness of my batter. I'm sure any regular cake batter will work, including box cake mix.
ReplyDeleteMy only suggestion is to make the prints/spots smaller b/c as the cake bakes, the print/spots enlarges and expands.
Informative article, totally what I was looking for.
