Dragon Ball Z Cake
This cake was made for a Dragon Ball Z fan. Before I was asked to make it, I had not heard about Dragon Ball Z or any of the characters before. This is part of what I love about decorating cakes: I get to learn about a lot of new characters and design techniques daily. This makes every cake design a unique experience. I decided to go with a 2D fondant topper of Goku, a crystal ball and Shenron the God Dragon. It all came together pretty well.
The cakes sponges themselves are pound cakes frosted with vanilla buttercream. All the design work was carried out with marshmallow fondant.
A pictorial on how I made Goku can be found here.
A pictorial on how I made Shenron can be found here.
Below are a few other views of this cake.
Before settling for the design above, I made a separate cake which I didn’t like. I had to rip off the fondant and re-do the design. Below are pictures of the first cake I made.
Terry Adido is passionate about showing people how easy it is to recreate restaurant quality meals in the comfort of their kitchens. With a style of cooking he refers to as Afro-European Fusion, his meals are influenced greatly by French and Italian Cuisine with a West African twist. If you love good food, you are in for the ride of your life.
The pictorial of the Goku and Shenron was very helpful. Thanks so much for sharing!
I’m glad to hear that Lailah.
