  2. Then put icing to your baked cakes using colored fondant (which can be bought online) or you can use royal icing or buttercream.
  3. Make some stencil lettering for the DROP word. You may create this using fondant or cardboard.
  4. This may be optional but to make your fortnite cake more enticing you can add any green food coloring to serve as grass.
  5. To make it more like Supply Drop attach a ribbon or string to a color yellow balloon tie it under your cake.

  3. Allow 10 minutes for chilling before transferring to a wire rack to chill for another 10 minutes.
  4. Make even layers of homemade or store-bought buttercream around the edges of both cakes. Because it would have risen in the middle, flatten the tops of both sponges with a knife.

  • Use rectangular cake pans to bake a chocolate or vanilla sponge fortnite cake, as directed above.

  • Now is the time to look over your drawing and create rolled-out icing sheets in the colors you will need. Cut them into the appropriate sizes using a sharp knife, then attach them to the blue bus with a tiny amount of water.
  • The balloon will be the most difficult task; in the game, it will be hovering over the bus, but because this would be impossible on a fortnite cake, we recommend molding a portion of white icing and putting it on top of a black square. If necessary, secure with toothpicks.

Fortnite Cake

Down below is a step-by-step procedure on how to make a Fortnite Birthday cake!

Here are some Fortnite Birthday cake ingredients you need for this cake.

Cake Ingredients

  • 2 pkg. (8.25 oz.) bold purple cake mix
  • 2 ounces or 1/3 cup of fuschia fondant
  • Cornstarch
  • 1 pkg. or 2.2-oz. crisp rice cereal
  • 2 cans or 15.6 oz. of blue vanilla frosting
  • 1 lb. blue vanilla fondant
  • 4 pkg. or 1.1 oz. colorful dots edible icing designs
  • 1 cup marshmallow

Directions

Step 1: Before we start, heat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Spray 3 or 6-inch round cake pans lightly with cooking spray. Prepare cake mixes as directed on the package. Fill prepared cake pans equally with batter. Fortnite cakes should be cooked for 20 to 22 minutes in the preheated oven, or until they come out clean when a wooden pick is put in their middle. Remove the Fortnite cakes from the oven and set them on wire racks to cool for 10 minutes. Invert the cakes onto cooling racks and set them aside for 45 minutes to cool fully. Next is step two of your Fortnite birthday cake;

Step 2: Meanwhile, gently use the cornstarch to dust the work surface. Roll Fuschia fondant to a 1/8-inch thick, 7-inch square on cornstarch (to avoid sticking). Cut 2 thin slices from one side of the fondant square using a sharp knife; then put aside. Next is step three of your cake;

Step 3: Cut the rice treat into the form of the number 1 with a sharp knife or cookie cutter. Apply a small coating of icing to the entire 1 shape. Trim extra fondant and smooth the back seam before folding the Fuschia fondant square over the rice treat. Using tiny fondant strips, smooth seams and line the border of fondant 1. The lollipop that was put into the fondant 1 shape should be set aside. Next is Fortnite cake ideas step 4;

Step 4: Trim the domed tops off the cooled Fortnite cake layers with a serrated knife. 1 inch of one of the cake layers’ edges should be trimmed (creating a 6-inch round, a 4-inch round). Next is step 5 Fortnite cake ideas;

Step 5: Place 1 circle or 6-inch circle on a cake plate and start assembling the cake. Using 1/2-inch thick blue frosting, cover the top of the cake layer. Spread another 1/2-inch thick layer of icing over the top of the 4-inch cake circle. Finish by frosting the top of the cake with the remaining 6-inch cake round. To keep, the layers in place, insert 2-3 dowel rods into the Fortnite cake. Apply a very thin coating of the frosting over the whole cake, making sure that the borders and top are as smooth as possible. Next is step six of Fortnite cake ideas;

Step 6: Use cornstarch to dust the work surface lightly. With your hands, massage the blue fondant, loosening and warming it as you proceed. Roll fondant to a 1/8-inch thick, 18-inch round on a dusted surface. Smooth out the fondant on top of the frosted Fortnite birthday cake as you go. Next is the last step of Fortnite cake ideas;

Step 7: Apply a little quantity of blue frosting on the backs of the dot icing decor and stick them to the cake. Fill a piping bag halfway with marshmallow fluff and pipe it around the top and bottom of the Fortnite cake, allowing the top fluff to flow down the sides slightly. Top the Fortnite birthday cake with number 1 fondant and candles.

And there you have it, the Fortnite Birthday cake recipe.

The All-Action Blue Fortnite Cake

If you are looking for a delectable treat for your hardcore gamer, I have something that you’ll love. This custom Fortnite cake is such a beautiful and sweet treat to surprise everyone. I’m sure everyone will love this! If you’re ready, let’s roll!

Cake Ingredients

Here are the steps

Step 1: Make sure you have the oven pre-heated to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Prepare your 3 sets of 6-inch round cake pans by greasing them liberally with a cooking spray or butter.

Step 2: Refer to the cooking directions specified in your cake mixes. After cooking the cake mix, pour it into your cake pans. Bake it in your preheated oven until it’s done. Use a wooden pick to check if nothing sticks to it to make sure that your cake is perfect. I recommend 20 to 22 minutes of cooking time.

Step 3: Remove it from the oven and let it cool for 10 minutes. Put it on a wire rack and let it cool for another 45 minutes.

Step 4: Dust your work area with cornstarch. Roll the fondant on the cornstarch. Make sure you have it to flatten to a 1/8 inch thick by 7 inches square. Use a sharp knife to cut 2 thin strips to the side of the fondant. Set it aside.

Step 5: Cut the rice treat into shapes of number 1. Spread a thin layer of frosting all over the 1s. Fold the fondant square all over the rice treat. Cut the excess and smoothing seam at the back. Use the fondant strip to line the edge of the fondant. Stick an 8-inch lollipop stick in through the bottom of the 1-shaped fondant. Set it aside.

Step 6: Use a serrated knife in trimming the tops of the cooled cake layers. Trim a 1-inch edge of the cake layers.

Step 7: It’s now time to assemble your Fortnite cake. Place the 6-inch round cake on a plate. Spread the top cake with the 1/2-inch layer of blue frosting. Top the 4-inch cake and spread it on top with another 1/2-inch of frosting.

Step 8: Top the cake with the remaining 6-inch cake and frost top cake. Insert 2 to 3 rods into your cake to secure the layers. Spread a thin layer of frosting all over your cake. Make both the top and edges as smooth as possible.

Step 9: Dust your work surface with cornstarch. Lay down the blue fondant and gently massage it with your hands to loosen and warm it. Put the fondant on the dusted surface and roll it into a 1/8-inch thick 18-inch round. Lay the fondant over the top of a frosted cake and press it down. Trim any excess with a knife.

Step 10: Spread some blue frosting on the back of your dot icing decor. Put the marshmallows fluff spread it all over the cake. Insert the 1s into the cake and finished it with candles.

Easy Fortnite Marshmallow Cake

It’s funny, it’s fluffy, and it’s delectably irresistible. This cake is going to be hit within the gaming community. It’s easy to do and doesn’t entail a lot of expensive equipment. But I must admit, it sure tastes good and it teases our taste buds really well.

Cake Ingredients

Here are the steps

Step 1: Put the marshmallows in a microwave-safe bowl with 2 tablespoons of water. Let it heat for 30 seconds on high heat, stir it gently until everything mixes well. Continue heating it in the microwave for another 30 seconds. Stir until everything melts evenly.

Step 2: Put the 3/4 cup of sugar on top of your melted marshmallows. Fold the sugar into the marshmallow. You can add a bit of flavoring to your mixture if you like.

Step 3: Put the vegetable shortening in a bowl for easy access. Grease your hand before working on your mixture so it won’t stick to your fingers. Turn the marshmallow mixture into your counter and knead it like you’re making bread dough. Knead it as needed while adding in small amounts of powdered sugar and put another batch of grease into your hands as needed or as soon as the mixture sticks to your fingers. In case the dough is has dried up, add 1/2 tablespoon of water gently at a time and knead until it formed a consistent and elastic smooth ball that you can stretch without it being torn. Gently knead your dough for 8 minutes.

Step 3: To spice up your recipe with color, add a little icing color or a few drops of food coloring to your mixture. Make sure you just add small drops of colors at a time so can control it according to your liking.

Step 4: Double wrap your fondant and let it sit overnight. By doing this, you are allowing the fondant to relax and hold its shape when it’s time to decorate it. Gently coat your dough with a thin layer of vegetable shortening. Wrap it in plastic wrap and gently squeeze it in on a resealable bag. Try to remove or squeeze some air before sealing your bag.

Step 5: Please remember all these things: To prevent the fondant from sticking, prepare your working surface by greasing it with the vegetable shortening or dust it with cornstarch and powdered sugar. Make sure everything is clean as fondant picks up any dirt very easily. A piece of advice, please don’t wear fuzzy sweaters when you are decorating your cake.
