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.
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
Mayonnaise cake is another option to minimize elbow grease.
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
That one year where I was buying a new piece of kitchen equipment right before every holiday 😅
