UPDATED: Tutorial HERE
When I first saw this cake on Martha Stewarts webiste, I was smitten.
Beyond smitten.
Photo courtesy of Martha Stewart.
It was more likeobsessed.
I wanted SO badly to do one myself… but never knew how to add my own twist on it.
I think I found a way.
I decided to try and put trees in the midst of all those ‘ruffles’.
But then, I took it a step further.
A Surprise Inside Cake!
The inside of this precious little cake that nearly killed me to cut into I loved it so is a red and green striped ornament!
A precious little green and red striped ornament… all INSIDE the cake!
And there you have it… A Christmas Tree Red and Green Ornament Inside Cake! Easy peasy.
I really hope you try making a ruffle cake of your own. Martha gives pretty easy directions and its a really forgiving design andtechnique. The different ways you can make it yours are endless!!!
Here are two verysimilartutorials to give you and idea of how it all comes together!
Hope that helps, and THANK YOU for all the wonderfully supportive and thoughtful kind words!
This is absolutely gorgeous.
What a great idea! I want to make something new for my work Christmas party. Maybe I can work up the courage to try this.
Oh my! I literally gasped when I scrolled down and the first picture came into view! Stunning!! Love love love those ruffles! And the inside is pretty darn spectacular, too.
You are one talented lady!!
Oh. My. Goodness. This is amazing. As if the outside wasn’t beautiful enough…. I’ve never seen anything like the inside. You’ve outdone yourself. Gorgeous!
Martha pretty much rocks everythign she does…this is no exception! ABSOLUTE showstopper!
I loved the trees then I saw the inside – fabulous!!
Amazing. Well done. I love it.
amazing cake!
LOVE this! This is probably my favorite cake you’ve made so far. I think it’d be too scary to attempt this on my own so thank you for allowing me to live vicariously through you! ha ha Merry Christmas!
Wow…I think you’ve done gone and outdone yourself with this one, which I never thought would be possible!! Very amazing!
Wow! Those ruffles are beautiful, and I love the trees! (And the ornament. Your ‘inside the cake’ ideas are always amazing.)
My favorite of all you have ever done! PERFECT!!!!!
Stunning! You pulled off the technique beautifully!
You are AMAZING! I’ve always loved that cake too! Yours is perfect– I loooove it! Will definitely be featuring it on my tumblr! I will prob put it on my main blog too when i do favorites christmas post! This has got to be my all time favorite of yours. Ahhhhh! Loooooove it! I could never tell
You enough how fabulous you are!
I saw the comment that someone left that said she literally “gasped” when she scrolled down through the pictures. I can totally relate because I did the exact same thing!!! You’ve out done yourself with this one Amanda (and I didn’t think that was possible). You AMAZE me with your talent and creativity!!!!!
I love this cake! You do such an amazing job! The ruffles are perfect and the tree ruffles are perfect!
Incredible! That is just beautiful.
This is absolutely beautiful! Icing baked goods is by far my worst kitchen skill, so when I saw this picture at the top of your post I panicked. However, I think you are right that it would be super forgiving.
I may need to try this!
Wow. Just wow. That’s beautiful and amazing and so totally impressive!
That is just so cool. You are a very awesome and creative person! God surely blessed you with a wonderful talent!!
WOW!!! Outstanding.
this cake is beyond beautiful, you did an amazing job on this.
Un-freaking-believably beautiful. You are an inspiration.
Can You do a tutorial on how to do the ornament shape in your cake. This is a masterpiece!
I would give anything to be as good as you!
That is one awesome cake!!!
Oh my gosh this is amazing. I have no idea how you did those ruffles, let alone a ruffle design, let alone the inside of the cake! you are truly talented. Love it!
seriously amazing….wow, you really know your stuff!!!
Wow. Here I am, cannot even bake a box of cupcakes! This is more than baking. This is design and engineering. I’m not often drawn to cakes, but this is really really amazing, cool, and every other word in between. So impressive.
Wow!! I love this and that ruffled icing is gorgeous. Very inspirational work!
Your Christmas Cake is gorgeous!
How did you get the ornament inside? Well, I mean to say is how did you get the coloring like that for the ornament? I would love to make this, but that bit … I haven’t a clue.
This is so beautiful and would surely be the hit at any Christmas party!!
WOW!!I <3 this cake! How do you make the orament? did you make 2 seperate red an green cakes or are the cupcake size? you amaze me with every post :O)
Amanda – I totally just sat here and gasped when I saw this cake. Then I gasped again when I saw the inside. You, my friend, are so creative and make magic! Pure MAGIC!
to die for!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That cake is BEYOND gorgeous and cool! Love the ruffles on the outside and the ornament on the inside
I have been crushing on that pink Martha cake since the first time I saw it, too, but now I have an even bigger crush…THIS CAKE!!! I fell in love with the trees as soon as I saw them, but when I saw the inside…oh my gosh! Girl, you are the bomb! Sooo happy I came across your blog! I’m off to share your creation with my FB peeps!

You are brilliant… This cake is absolutely STUNNING! I love it!
I think I am speechless. Nothing I would say does it justice.
Oh, but I expect it to show up on that other site any moment now, with Martha’s cake as a reference.
Did you just say “Easy peasy”?!? Um, no. This is called, “Amanda is a genius cake.” I can’t even wrap my head around how to do that.
You never cease to amaze!!!
Truly fabulous!!! I need to try that ruffle technique soon. LOVE. I adore how you make the insides of your cakes as awesome as the outside:) You Rock Amanda!
Perfect, Amanda, and so much fun!

Genius!
Martha should be envious!
Ah its stunning!
I literally can’t resist telling you how good that cake looks. Magazine worthy design.
Just when I think I have seen it all….you go and do something even more amazing than before. What lucky people we are that you share your WONDERFULNESS with us! I have now been inspired to do some mini ruffles on some cupcakes!!! How delightful would that be??? Your the BEST!
OMG. I think you just broke my brain with the awesome!
I’m definitely going to have to work on a surprise cake during the break…
That couldn’t even be any cooler! You are awesome and I seriously love that cake. Amazing! Have a great day rockstar!
I love this!! The soft frosting ruffles, yum!
Beautiful! My first thought was: It’s like Gussy made a cake!
Oh my gosh!! That is just amazing!! It is so beautiful. I would not ever even attempt anything like that. You’re awesome!
So pretty! wonderful job, you are so creative!
you are genius!
ARe you kidding me?! This is the best looking holiday cake I have seen!! I love it. You are crazy talented!
And. . . Amanda, this is my fav cake from Martha! I have been wanting to make this and just can’t seem to figure out how to do it. Guess who will be emailing for some help.
This cake is beyond fantastic!! I love all your cakes but this is my favorite by far!
Pretty much in love! You should submit this to Martha as a variation! LOVE LOVE LOVE!
Yeah, “easy peasy” was exactly what I was thinking when I saw that cake. Ahem. SO beautiful, and I’m not buying the “easy” bit for one minute! How about: made with exact precision by my oober talented hands. It’s a gorgeous cake, and I love the added trees!
Hope you’re having a great time in Florida–not baking cakes! (unless you’re trying for huge brownie points with the extended family!) Hope this cake wins you some major kudos and awards!
i totally wish i could decorate a cake like this!! takes true talent!!!
I am in awe by the inside of the cake. I mean the ruffles look really pretty and yummy but oh my the inside is just phenomenal looking. You have inspired me to try my hand at it.
That is AWESOME!!!! A “how to” post on this would be great:D
I bow at your greatest.
Oh my gosh..that is amazing! Great job!! I bookmarked it because I would love to make it for family at Xmas, but came back to look at it in awe again..and then realized there’s no tutorial on how to do the ornament.
Any chance you will put together one?

Amanda, it really is such a beautiful cake. I admire your talent, and your patience!

Wow! I never post comments but this one deserves one! That is a most beautiful cake. Well done.
I can’t wait for the Easy Peezy tutorial!!
WWWWOOOOOWWWWW IMPRESIONANTE!!
This is far & away the most festive, gorgeous holiday cake I’ve seen. How I’d love to cut into it and find the ornament inside. What a showstopper!
So cute!!! I love it! All that’s missing is Eggnog http://www.fourgreensteps.com/community/recipes/60/327
OH my goodness gracious yikes, yowza and all kinds of exclamations!! Wow. (I had to post a link on ediblecrafts.craftgossip.com. It was required.)
I would love to see how you made the ornament portion, that is really a WOW! cake.
You are amazing ^_*
This cake is absolutely fabulous.
Stop it, just stop. This is so amazingly awesome I can’t take it. Sharing with friends now.
Stunning – absolutely stunning!! You had me at the frosting job. Then to see the cake cut open – amazing!!
Holy crap! You got skillz.
OMG, that is fabulous! I adore the ruffled icing, very pretty!
Absolutely delightful!
Thats the most beautiful thing I’ve seen in a very long time. Bravo!
Excellent looking cake! I’m not even a cake eater, but I’d like a piece of this beauty. Well done!!!!
I would LOVE to know how to make this!!!!!!!!!!
So adorable! What a genius idea!
I think that you *definitely* found your our twist on it! As a matter of fact, I think that you may be giving Martha a run for her money on this one! I’m just sayin’!
Absolutely amazing. Please keep them coming as you inspire a great many people with your talent.
I’ve figured out the ornament in the center. It’s the ruffles and tree ruffles that have me baffled. I bet getting that last row of ruffles in is a challenge.
You gave us a little tease before you headed out on vacation. Posted these gorgeous pictures and left us w/o your great instructions. Can’t wait for you to teach us.
You have outdone yourself, hon. Your mother is very, very proud of you (will you make me one?). Mom
This is amazing and looking forward to the tutorial. Enjoy the rest of your vacation!
AMAZING!!! I may have to take a stab at making one of those. Yours is beautiful!!
wow!! clever idea!! the ruffles are nicely done. good job
Absolutely Beautiful.
I’ve been obsessed with that cake as well!!.. but your version blew it out of the water!! so impressive!
I’m thinking about basing my wedding cake on her ruffle cake. so dreamy.
Is there a tutorial or somewhere I can learn how to do a design inside the cake like your ornament? I really love this whole cake!
It’s beautiful. And you REALLY made the ruffles your own.
Amanda, it really is such a beautiful cake. I admire your talent, and your patience!
wow! That cake is amazing!!! I love the ornament inside!!
Showed this to The Professor and HE GASPED!! Well done!!!
WOW!!! that’s all i can think of to say after looking at your awesome cake.

Uh-oh, I can’t stand it, my previous post has a typo…I meant to say “TOO complicated” :-/
You are too talented for your own good! That is the best!!
you continue to amaze and impress me. seriously, i don’t think i look forward to anyone’s posts as much as i look forward to yours. carry on!!
I too obsessed over the Martha cake. I made a simple 2 layer white version which was nice. But this Christmas cake is absolutely breathtaking! Seriously, my jaw almost hit the floor! Beautiful work!!!

your cakes. are amazing. I can’t believe how creative and cute and perfect they are!! LOVE them all!!!
As a long, loooong time lurker, can I just say that something about those tree-ruffles makes this cake my fave? Because I’m smitten with it.
I fell in love with the ruffles as soon as I saw the first cake. You are simply amazing Amanda, simply amazing.
This is the most unbelievably beautiful cake I’ve ever seen! Those ruffles, and the tree design, and my god, the ornament in the middle! You are so very talented, and I’m looking forward to seeing the tutorial. In the meantime, enjoy your vacation!
This is a real stunner of a cake! I know why Foodgawker featured it on their Facebook page. Just beautiful…
This may be the coolest cake I’ve seen. Beautiful job!!

Oh wow, that is so cool!! I have always loved that Martha cake,but I know I love yours so much more. What a way to put your own touch on it. You Rock!!
This is quite possibly THE most beautiful cake I have ever seen!!! You are amazing!!
Had to come back and comment again now that your cake is FAMOUS! I am so happy that people around the globe have seen your fabulous work! It’s the first time I’ve ever seen a cake that made me stand up and applaud.
Divine inspiration, I’m convinced!
Just found your website and I’m in LOVE! I wish I had tons of money because I’d hire you to be my teacher. I’d love to create things like this.

This is beautiful! Thank you for posting something truly inspiring….your creativity and curiosity is endearing! Much blessings!
This is so wonderful!
Absolutely beautiful!
Wow! this is superb, thanks for sharing!
This cake is amazing!!!! Truly amazing!!!
Wow! That is absolutely amazing. Great job. I think it is gorgeous!
SPEECHLESS!!! You did SUCH an amazing job and the surprise inside is so fun and clever!!
Your are amazing. This is gorgeous.
Really, really inspiring! I like yours better than Martha’s, but shh
Wow! Wow! Wow! I think most of your stuff is pretty amazing but as I was reading this post and scrolling down, when I got to the picture of your cake, I exclaimed out loud! It’s amazingly beautiful. And then the ornament inside. Just awesome!
You are so so incredibly talented. This cake looks STUNNING!!!!
Thank you very much for the post. This is so helpful. Keep posting, dear.
I tried making this, but the ornament did not turn out. When cut, at the outside edge of the ornament, it looks lined perfectly, but at the center, the colors mixed into each other. It literally looks like the guts of the cake. Yuck!!
I made the ornament by taking the cored out cake and the cake from leveling, adding color gels and buttercream to the crumbs, packing it in the core, putting the top on.
Sorry about that Georgia!
In the other tutorials that I linked to on this post, I showed how I get the cake for the interior portion, or surprise inside. Thecake needs to be colored BEFORE you bake it, then you add any type of frosting to get a spongierconsistency…
THEN you can go in carve out the cake and make your interior layers.
Will try and do a tutorial soon
Wow, that is amazing! First I thought the tree ribbons were impressive, then I scrolled down and saw the center ornament. It gives a whole new meaning to being “beautiful inside and out.”
Hazel @ TastyPursuits.com
OMG OMG OMG I LOVE those ruffles! I never thought to decorate a cake like that – gorgeous! Plus, the added surprise inside is simply genius. Well done!!
that is so awesome! I can’t wait to find out how you made the inside like that
I don’t post comments on blogs very often. But, this is incredible! So beautiful!! Wow!!
Oh my gosh! I have been so in love with that pink cake too. I wanted to make it for sophia’s birthday but then I chickened out because I have zero talent in decorating
Now after seeing yours….I think I may love it (yours) even more!!
Okay, so how do I make the ornament on the inside of the cake!! Where is the link for the tutorial!?????
THANKS
Martha’s cake inspire me too for a ballerina cake. I like you cake, the inside part is killing me. Super!
Beautiful!
Amazing as always Amanda! Your cakes are just so elegant and the color designs inside are such a fun surprise!! They make me smile

You are so talented….Love everything you do….
Thanks so much for sharing this! I’ve been wanting to replicate the MS cake, and this is such a cute spin on it! xoxo
This is so cool! I LOVE your take on this, especially the “ornament” inside!
I saw this cake on Marthas’ website when I searching for birthday cake ideas for my oldest daughter several years ago & also loved it!
This cake is amazing! Your website have really inspired me. I tried this cake on my own…not as beautiful as yours…but I tried! http://onecakeaweek.blogspot.com/2011/01/week-4-chocolate-cake-with-swiss.html
Wow these cakes look delicious! How do you get them to look so perfect?!
That is beyond amazing.
Go Amanda!!!!
Wow.
I really appreciate the fact that you’ve made your own website and have in fact gived to the world your thoughts. I like your work and feel I can relate to what you’ve done. Most people can’t even imagine having such talent. I hope that you know how lucky you are.
Good luck to you in all your aims. 
How pretty are those cakes! Love the ruffles!
WOW!!!!
Wow! That has to be the most gorgeous cake I have seen in a long, long time! Love the ruffle trees and then you showed the inside and my jaw DROPPED! How the heck did you so that? I have looked through your Jan & Feb posts and I don’t see it. Please share. Salivating mouths want to try it!
I wish I was as skilled as you! I cannot imagine everyone’s face as you cut it open, mine was literally like this –>
and :O you’re amazing! You inspire me to be original even when I’m using other people’s ideas. Love you!!
Holy cow – so are you going to tell us the trick or what?!
Wow that is so lovely! It looks like so much work but really worth it in the end. I bet you shocked everyone!
Would LOVE to know how to make the ornament inside this cake!!
Thank you~Jill
Plese do a tutorial on this absolutely stunning cake!
I smiled when I saw the trees incorporated into the ruffle design, but I gasped when I saw the ornament in the middle. Sweet, sweet, sweet.
Love, love, love and did I say LOVE it….The green against the white is stunning enough..but then you put an ornament inside….AH MAZING!!!!!!
I would love to try this, but have no clue how to do the ornament. Will the tutorial be up soon?
martha this cake is verry beautiful i am a bakes of cakes but this is liked this is perfectionally done at a store im going to make a christmas tree cake for my work party i hope they like it
Wow! This is amazing. I love all those ruffle cakes out there, but this is such an original take on the concept. And then to have the ornament inside the cake. Wow!
Wow! This cake is amazing! Saw it on Sunday Sweets on CakeWrecks today!
This was featured on the Sunday Sweets on Cake Wrecks!! I was excited when I saw it, because it was something I had discovered before Jen from CW told me about it!! Congrats on the recognition!!

Love the surprise inside. Just want to know HOW you did it.
I love your cake creations and I will attempt to do several. Could you please let me know which tip you used to do the Christmas Tree cake. Thank you for your tutorials. Lynn
You are extremely talented…WOW. I have to copy this and send to my sister in North Carolina who knows how to handle frosting and all the tips and whatnot. I am a cookie baker, but my goodness, this is so pretty. I enjoyed looking at your things so much. One of your cakes looks like an ice cream cake inside. The roses outside looks like the bottom of a wedding dress. Simple and elegant. I’ll check back again. Thank you very much. Lorraine (retired) cookielady.
How gorgeous is this cake. Please, please, please do a tutorial. I’m one that has to follow visually. Beautiful….
Absolutely adorable! So happy to have come across our blog.
As an aspiring baker myself, I am baffled on how you got the decoration so perfect on the inside! Please do tell details, or maybe give sources that could show us!
Love Love Love your cake, it is beautiful!
This is amazing, your so talented.
saw the cake and wow! not sure if I can make it. It took a lot of time for that.
HI!!
Im new, just discovered your blog today… LURVE it!! You’re my new fave :p
Anyway…. was just wondering… how did you do the layers on the inside? Were they just cake mixed with icing again?
Please and thank you
Gabe H.
If there is any chance you could create the tutorial for the ornament inside the cake in time for this Christmas it would be great. Thank you.
