A wool hat cake.

Serves

10–12 people

---

🧁 Ingredients

For the Cake

2 ½ cups (310 g) all-purpose flour

2 ½ tsp baking powder

½ tsp salt

1 cup (230 g) unsalted butter, softened

1 ¾ cups (350 g) granulated sugar

4 large eggs

2 tsp vanilla extract

1 cup (240 ml) milk

For the Buttercream Frosting

2 cups (450 g) unsalted butter, softened

5 cups (600 g) powdered sugar

2–4 tbsp milk or cream

1 tsp vanilla extract

Gel food coloring of your choice (for “wool” color)

Optional Filling

Fruit jam, ganache, or flavored buttercream

Decoration

Extra buttercream (colored) for piping texture

Small cupcake or cake ball for the pom-pom (optional)

---

🧑‍🍳 Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
Grease and line one 6-inch (15 cm) round cake pan and one 6-inch half-sphere pan (or use two round pans and carve a dome shape).

2. Make the cake batter.

Whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.

In a separate bowl, beat butter and sugar until fluffy.

Add eggs one at a time, then vanilla.

Mix in dry ingredients alternately with milk until smooth.

3. Bake the cakes.

Divide the batter between the pans.

Bake 30–40 minutes (round layer) and 45–55 minutes (dome layer), or until a toothpick comes out clean.

Cool completely before assembling.

4. Prepare the buttercream.

Beat butter until creamy.

Gradually add powdered sugar.

Mix in vanilla and enough milk to reach a smooth, spreadable consistency.

Tint with desired color.

5. Assemble the hat shape.

Place the flat cake on a board. Spread filling or frosting on top.

Add the dome cake on top to form a rounded hat shape.

Apply a thin “crumb coat” of frosting over the whole cake. Chill 15–20 minutes.

6. Frost and decorate.

Add a thicker layer of buttercream all over.

Build a raised “brim” around the base of the cake using more frosting.

Use a piping bag fitted with a round or star tip to pipe knit-like lines and cable patterns around the cake.

7. Make the pom-pom (optional).

Frost a small cupcake or cake ball, then use short piping strokes to make it fluffy.

Place it on top of the hat using a little frosting as glue.

8. Chill and serve.

Refrigerate the cake for 30 minutes to set the design.

Let it come to room temperature before slicing.

---

💡 Tips

Use a knit or cable piping pattern for realism.

Choose two tones of the same color (for example, light pink and dark pink) for depth.

Keep the cake chilled if your kitchen is warm.

You can substitute fondant ropes or use a knit-texture mold if preferred.

🎄 Instructions

6. Pour batter into the prepared pan and bake for 30–35 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Let it cool completely.

2. Shape the Tree:

1. Once cooled, cut the round cake into 3 layers.

2. Using a knife, cut each layer into progressively smaller circles, then stack them to form a tree shape (largest circle at the bottom, smallest at the top).

3. Optionally, you can carve the edges into a pointed tree shape for a more realistic look.

3. Frost the Cake:

1. Beat butter, powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla to make smooth frosting. Add green food coloring.

2. Place a star candy at the top.

Add a little shimmer with edible glitter for a festive look.

Scissors and ribbon (for shaping skirt)

Cake board and dowels (for stability)

---

👩‍🍳 INSTRUCTIONS

1. Bake the Cake

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line 3 round cake pans.

2. Cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy.

3. Add eggs one at a time, then vanilla.

4. In a separate bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, salt.

5. Add dry and wet ingredients alternately with milk.

6. Divide batter into pans and bake 25–30 minutes, until golden and springy.

7. Cool completely.

---

2. Prepare the Buttercream

Beat butter until pale. Gradually add powdered sugar, then milk and vanilla. Whip until fluffy. Tint with food coloring if desired.

---

3. Assemble the Cake

1. Stack the cake layers with buttercream in between.

2. Carve the top slightly rounded so it looks like the waist of a gown.

3. Frost the entire cake smoothly. Chill for 15–20 minutes.

---

4. Insert the Dress Form

1. Gently insert the doll/mannequin torso into the center top of the cake.

2. Wrap the base of the torso with a strip of cling wrap or foil to protect from frosting.

---

5. Attach the Real Tulle Skirt

1. Cut long strips of tulle.

2. Gather them around the waist of the doll and secure with ribbon or elastic.

3. Drape the tulle down around the cake base so it blends naturally — the cake looks like the dress bodice, and the tulle becomes the flowing skirt.

4. Add edible pearls, luster dust, or piped rosettes at the junction between the cake and tulle for a seamless transition.

---

6. Finishing Touches

Add edible glitter or gold leaf.

Arrange the tulle to fan dramatically as if “coming out” of the cake.

You can hide battery LED fairy lights under the tulle for a glowing reveal.

---

💡 Tips

Chill the cake before inserting the dress form to avoid sinking.

If it’s a large display, use a foam dummy cake for the bottom layers and a real cake on top.

Match your tulle and frosting colors for elegance (e.g., blush pink buttercream + rose tulle).
