Unicorn Watercolor Cake
Make the dessert table feel magical with soft, painterly swirls and whimsical details. This watercolor birthday cake blends gentle hues—pastels, sorbets, or your custom palette—into a smooth buttercream finish that looks gorgeous in photos. Add fondant ears, a golden horn, and dainty lashes for a signature unicorn look, or keep it minimal with a delicate mane and a slim name topper. The crumb stays tender and the frosting silky for a bite that’s as delightful as the design.

CAKE CARE
Keep your cake looking as good as it tastes!
HANDLING YOUR CAKE
Keep your cake box level with one hand on the bottom. This will prevent the layers from shifting and the sides of the box from denting your cake.
DRIVING WITH YOUR CAKE
Transport your cake in the flattest part of your vehicle. Do not place your cake on a seat as this may cause the layers to shift, or in an enclosed trunk without airflow. Please drive carefully with no sudden stops that may cause your cake to move. Our cakes are fragile, drive cautiously!
STORING YOUR CAKE
Your cake is delicate and sensitive to heat. The real butter we use in our frostings make our cakes more likely to melt in warm temperatures. Keep your cake cool by refrigerating it until 1 hour prior to serving. Do not freeze.
Do not let your cake sit out for more than two hours, or overnight. It may melt.
LEFTOVER CAKE
Extra cake?! Lucky, you have a sweet snack for the next day :). Simply store your leftover cake in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to seven days. To freeze your cake, cover any open slices in parchment paper to preserve moisture and then wrap the entire cake as tightly as possible in plastic wrap. Next, put the plastic-wrapped cake in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 3 months.
