So far, I have been doing research on how to make a professional layered birthday cake. I have been watching videos and looking up various recipes using websites such as Tastemade, there are many ways to make this cake some more challenging than others. I have made a list of materials needed in order to succeed in baking said cake, it is quite the simple list however the baking and putting together is going to be the most challenging part. Many recipes seem to look at baking as an art because the craftsmanship and decorating takes somewhat of a skill, I hope to accomplish this birthday cake in the most professional way possible without making a mess.
