This video is a step-by-step tutorial on how to make a kawaii pop tart cake. The host, Laurie, starts by baking a 9x13 cake and lining the pan with parchment paper for easy removal. She then levels the cake using a tool and carves off any excess caramelization. Laurie decides to cover the cake in buttercream instead of fondant, and uses ivory food coloring to add a beautiful pastry color. She pipes a border around the cake, fills it with strawberry jam, and presses down to create a smooth top. The cake is then given a crumb coat and a thicker coat of buttercream is added. Laurie smooths the buttercream, adds a pink fondant face, and uses a clay extruder to make custom pastel sprinkles. Finally, she cuts a bite out of the cake and invites viewers to suggest what they'd like her to make into a kawaii cake next.
