To decorate the cake I just sectioned off four areas and decorated them each with royal icing or fondant. You can also use buttercream if you don’t want to mess with royal icing.

  2. Love it! My kids thought it was an amazing surprise. I love your ideas and it has made me more creative in my own baking I’ve made your multi-colored layered cakes but haven’t gotten brave enough for shapes inside. Soon though. Thanks for visiting my blog. That is so sweet.
