If you try to put sauce in-between the layers, you will find that they tend to slip around and could potentially fall over when carrying the cake from kitchen to table. To avoid this problem, you'll need to add wooden dowels to the cake to stabilize it. You might be wondering what butterbeer tastes like. I first tried butterbeer during our visit to Harry Potter at Universal a few years ago. For the wings the first thing I did was bend the wire where I wanted it to go into the cake so I knew the length I had to work with for the wing itself. I used 18 gauge covered wire for strength.

Finally it’s time to paint the cake gold! The first time I used a gold airbrush, but I didn’t love the gold, too yellowish and not shiny enough.

When the Peanut turned 11, our little wizard-in-training wanted nothing more than a Harry Potter-themed birthday party. I can think of so many ways to implement this die cut golden snitch design! You could iron it onto a pillow or t-shirt, add it to a homemade card, or hang them up around the room at your next Harry Potter watch-party. So many options! I chose a Harry Potter butterbeercake with marshmallow frosting and topped it with sparkly golden snitches flying all around. This easy Harry Potter cake is perfect for beginner bakers. It will look amazing even if you don't know how to decorate with frosting. A delicious butterbeer cake topped with marshmallow frosting and sparkly golden snitches will delight everyone at your Harry Potter birthday. I finally found a gold dust I love the shade of – There are a lot of options out there. I found that all the ones I liked best were dusts that you mix with some food grade alcohol to make a paste for painting.Now you can carve a round cake or simply bake a round cake. I baked two half ball pans, AND a filler layer. Heat up the butterscotch sauce in your microwave for 10 - 15 seconds to make it drizzle a little smoother and serve it at the table in a tiny cream pitcher for pouring over the cake slices after serving.

The ball pans don’t bake perfectly even so once you level it it doesn’t make a perfect circle so that’s when a filler layer comes in. You can bake another cake layer in a normal round pan or do something fun. Cover the cake with the fondant and working around (not one side at a time, work around evenly) finally cutting off the excess and smoothing it with your hands, softly, so as not to leave a handprint anywhere. Using the Medium circle i added the second line and center top swirls. Then added another swirl to the side as well. Then using the next size down circle I added the large wing line swirl around the entire snitch. BUT you need to make sure you have a strong dense cake that can hold up under the weight of the fondant. I used a layer of crustless cheesecake. The first time I made this cake I used 6 inch pans, the second time I used 8 inch pans.

To boost the butterbeer flavor, the recipe calls for adding more butterscotch sauce to the cake layers during assembly. I will say right now that the wings were the hardest part, I even had an EPIC fail. The first time I made it I used gumpaste and it was just too heavy when it was so detailed. PROFESSIONAL APPEARANCE: The Harry Potter magic-inspired theme cake toppers are a simple way to give a professional touch to your cakes. Apply the edible glue on these toppers and make your cake look magical. I got the cake all ready for pictures and the feathers just started falling off (more down below) GAH, but when I switched to using wafer paper instead (still edible) I got the light and flowy effect I was looking for!

Who’s ready for a rousing game of Quidditch? Today’s post is a special one for my fellow Harry Potter fanatics! Whether you’re planning a Harry Potter-themed party, are looking for a fun wizarding craft, or are just a Harry Potter nerd who happens to own a cutting machine, I’ve got just the thing for you. Watch out for bludgers and let your creativity take flight with this awesome die cut golden snitch! Because it’s easier to frost the bottom half of the cake while it’s still upside down that’s what I do. Using Ganache of course, it’s what I always use for shaped cakes, esp cakes, like this, that could easily fall apart, off balanced. When contemplating where to start, I decided to go with the golden snitch as my first Harry Potter die cut creation. I thought it would be fun to make multiple versions or the design with a bunch of varying, intricate details. I definitely had a great time with it! Starting with the more “classic” one, then venturing to a more “feathery” design, and then a swirly one (because I never miss an opportunity to add a touch of swirlyness: the love bugs I made for Valentine’s Day can attest to that)!I use a clay extruder (only for food though, don’t cross contaminate). I started with the largest circle and added the main swirl around the side and the main lines on the top. Don’t forget the turn and curl on the sides. I simplified it to make it easier for beginner bakers but kept all the amazing flavors. Our butterbeer cake has butterscotch flavored cake layers with a light and fluffy marshmallow frosting swirled with butterscotch sauce but will be much easier for you to decorate and serve. If that sounds too fancy and complicated, I would actually recommend skipping adding the butterscotch sauce to the cake itself.
