Decoration Tips

Alright, so, let’s say you’ve got your penis cake, fresh out of the oven. It looks delicious, and it’s shaped like a penis, but it doesn’t quite look right. Well, of course not! For one thing, it’s probably not the right color, if you’ve used any cake mix I’ve ever heard of. You’re probably wondering how to make your penis the right color. What I’ve found works best is Wilton brand Copper color icing. Works perfectly. If you want to make the right color using vanilla frosting and the standard dyes you can buy from the grocery store, you’ll want to mix in 8 drops of yellow, 6 drops of red, and 2 drops of green. Yeah, I know the green sounds a little out of place. But I promise, it works.

Now, you’ve frosted your cake, but it’s still missing something. Maybe around the ball area? If you’d like to add some “hair” to your cake to make it more realistic, Chocolate Jimmies will work great. It’s as simple as that! Now, if you want to add a finishing touch – emphasis on finishing – to your cake, simply squeeze out some white frosting in the right place on whatever tray you’re transporting the cake on. And voila, your cake is a decorated and fully realistic representation!

Cake pans

I don’t have a lot of time to write, but I wanted to make my first blog post today real quick. Just want to share some of the pans I use to make my penis cakes, to start things off. The main one I use is this.

It makes great looking cakes, it only takes a half a box of cake mix, and it’s durable so you can use it over and over again, unlike some cake pans that are disposable. I’m still using the second one of these I ever bought, and that’s only because I lost the first one at a friend’s house one night. There’s also a jumbo version of it available, which looks the same but uses a full box of cake mix.

This isn’t the only pan I use, but I’ve really got to go now, so I’ll have to tell you about the others another time. Bye for now!

Hey Everybody

I’m Olivia, but everyone I’ve ever been to a bachelorette party with knows me best by my unofficial title – the penis cake queen. I know it probably doesn’t sound like too great a reputation to have to any of you, but I love it and wouldn’t have it any other way. See, I love baking, and ever since I went to my first bachelorette party, I’ve brought a penis-shaped cake with me to every one. They’ve always been a huge hit, and all the girls love them. On this blog, I want to share my ideas and tips with other bachelorette party bakers out there. I’ll post baking advice, cake pans I’ve used, stuff like that to help you girls out. Please, let me know what’s worked for you and what hasn’t. Looking forward to chatting with all of you!
