Video game fans will absolutely love the extra thought and effort that comes with a personalized birthday cake. Here are some great ideas and tips to help you make it perfect.
For the retro gamer who misses the old days, recreate a classic game console in cake form, complete with edible controllers and buttons, paying homage to gaming nostalgia.
For an easy fix, print character cutouts with edible ink on rice paper and use them to decorate simple iced cupcakes in the color scheme of the game.
Pixels are the foundation of any game and an easy way to create icing art. Use this mosaic style to recreate game logos or characters on the cake.
If you just can’t pick one favorite game, level up with a multilayered cake. Each tier can showcase distinctive environments or characters.
For the modern-day mobile gamer, craft a smartphone-shaped cake featuring popular mobile game icons or print out a scene from their favorite game to trace on top.
If you want to go the extra mile, add in the recipient as a character in the scene and create their own video game avatar.
For a truly bespoke cake, put together a fantasy world that’s completely original and make your recipient the hero of their own new game world.
