The Marvel characters are mega-popular heroes both among children and among those over thirty. And a cake with the heroes of these science fiction films based on American comics can come as a surprise to a brother or spouse. Although, to be honest, Marvel is loved not only by men and boys. Many female representatives also love these comics and films. Therefore, the Marvel cake can please a huge number of people, and enthusiasm, and memories will remain for years to come. And why not do it if it’s not so difficult?
Single tier cake
Making a single-tier cake is not so difficult. At the heart of it will be any biscuit that you like. A layer of bird milk, marshmallows, etc. is possible. The cream can also be used, as you like, to your taste. But it is desirable that the cakes do not creep. So, the options for decorating a single-tier cake with mastic can be as follows.
Marvel cake must be covered with four different colors of mastic so that it is divided into 4 quarters. And pick up each color for the hero whom he symbolizes. For example, Spider-Man is a red quarter, Captain America or Iron Man is white, Batman is gray, and Superman is blue. Hulk and Torah can symbolize gray. From mastic, again, you need to fashion the emblems of the heroes. It can be voluminous, but also flat, and glue them with water to the corresponding parts of the cake.
Here is an example of the Marvel cake in the photo:
In addition, you can prepare a plain cake, but cover it with cream or glaze, and order figures at the nearest pastry shop. Instead of figures, you can use round cookies with emblems of superheroes, which can also be ordered from professional confectioners. If you can draw, then make them on large cookies with the help of icing and a pastry bag will not be difficult.
Layered Cake
We also prepare a multi-tier cake in the Marvel style from biscuit cakes of different sizes. We layered with your favorite cream, fruits, nuts and other to your liking. We put down the 2 largest cakes, a little less - higher. So, you can stop on a cake of two tiers, or you can cook both three and four-tier giants.
The decoration is also laid out from mastic. Only now we do not divide the Marvel cake into quarters, but “colorize” each tier in the color of the desired hero. We also decorate the necessary parts of the cake with emblems. It is only possible, for example, to make flat small emblems along the entire length of the circle. You can crown the cake with the Thor volumetric hammer from mastic, or with the green fist of the Hulk. These are the easiest figures to perform at home.
To order jewelry from mastic is also an acceptable method, because not every person has an artistic talent.
The emblems of the Marvel heroes that decorate the cake are as follows:
- Spider-Man - a black web (you can add a black spider from mastic).
- Superman is a red-yellow Superman badge.
- Captain America is a red circle, and in it is a white star on a blue background.
- Batman - a stylized bat on a yellow oval;
- The hulk is a green fist.
- Thor is a hammer.
- Iron Man is a red-golden mask of a robot.
The rest of the Marvel characters have no distinct features or emblems that could be used as decorations. But, if you figure out how, for example, to portray a Black Widow or Hawkeye on a cake, go for it.
Toys as decoration
Perhaps the easiest way out of the situation when it is necessary to decorate the dessert with the characters of Marvel characters is to decorate the cake with real figures. It is better to buy dolls in stores in which you are sure that they are not some kind of clandestinely made and toxic. Imagine how much joy a child will bring not only a beautiful and brightly decorated birthday cake, but also a whole set of toy favorite superheroes!
In addition to this option, we can also offer to print pictures with superheroes on photo paper and stick them on thick cardboard. It will also look good. And the option, by the way, is more budget.
The background for such a Marvel cake can be either mastic, cream, or icing. The second two options are preferable for most people, since not everyone likes mastic to taste.
