Hand-Painted Kitten Cake Masterclass

Course Overview
This masterclass guides you through the complete creation of a hand-painted kitten-themed cake. Covering every stage—from template preparation and colored batter formulation to sponge baking, hand-painting facial features and fur, fondant accessory modeling, and cream assembly—you’ll learn the essential skills to craft an irresistibly cute and delicious cartoon cake.

What You’ll Learn
● Template Preparation – Mirror-print, resize, and freeze-design your kitten artwork for precise alignment on the pan.
● Colored Batter Formulation – Emulsify wet ingredients, sift dry ingredients, whip egg whites to soft peaks, and blend natural pigments into multiple pastel shades.
● Sponge Baking & Setting – Control oven temperature and timing to bake a tender, resilient base; cool and demold without loss of shape.
● Hand-Painting Techniques – Use fine brushes to illustrate kitten eyes, nose, mouth, layered fur texture, leaf motifs, and cherry accents with depth and contrast.
● Fondant Accessory Modeling – Sculpt edible flowers and decorative borders in fondant, then assemble onto your cake for extra dimension.
● Cream Whipping & Assembly – Prepare matcha-infused whipped cream and raspberry gelée filling; layer, roll, and chill the cake for clean, professional slices.

Course Breakdown
● Preparation – Process and freeze your kitten template on parchment; pre-measure ingredients and mix four base batter colors (white, blue, green, red).
● Batter & Sponge Production – Whip and fold egg whites into each colored batter, pipe or spread to form your design, freeze to set, then bake and cool your sponge.
● Decoration – Craft fondant flowers and frames; hand-paint kitten features, foliage, and cherries through multiple layers for a 3D effect; affix fondant pieces.
