Hey guys, it’s Ro! Welcome to another Nerdy Nummies!
Today we are gonna be making something I got so many requests for, the cute
little fat cat who loves to om-nom-nom-nom-nom! Pusheen Cat!
So today we are gonna be making a Pusheen Cat cake!
The things you will need, will be: 1 chocolate box cake mix, if you don’t want to use
box cake, just use your favorite chocolate cake recipe. 3 Eggs, vegetable oil,
and water! You’ll also need 2 round cake pans, because we’re gonna make it a layered
cake with cookies in the middle! Ooooh!
And, 1 big mixing bowl and a beater. Let’s put it all together!
Me-ow!
Yummy, little snack!
Meow!
Once you have all your ingredients put together in the big bowl, meow we are
gonna mix it all together for about 2 minutes on medium speed.
Once you got your batter all mixed together, we are going to grease our 2 baking pans,
I’m just going to use a little bit of butter, you can also use baking non-stick spray,
that works too! And now you’re just gonna eyeball it and divide your mixture into the 2 pans evenly.
Well at least attempt to. Here we go! Oh it smells so good!
Chocolate! Prrrr! Prrrr! Prrrr!
That was my purring! Ha-ha, I’m done now!
Once you got all your batter in the pans, just heat your oven to 350 and
bake for about 20 minutes!
Once your cakes are all done baking, make sure they’ve had plenty of time to cool.
And then what I did is I just leveled each of them so that they don’t have the
rounded kind of muffin top, they're just level, flat. 1 inch each!
And, I took this little picture, I just free-handed it. This is Kitty’s body,
it’s basically just a little nugget with ears! Ha-ha!
And what we’re gonna do is we're gonna put on top of each cake and then
cut it out with a big cutting knife.
Once we finish cutting out the main shape of our kitty, we’re just gonna put these
2 pieces of cake in the fridge for about 10 minutes so that they chill before
we frost them!
While the cakes are chilling in the fridge, this part is optional, you don’t
have to do this, that’s why I didn’t include this in the beginning,
but I am going to layer my cake with cookie in the middle.
Chocolate, cookie, chocolate!
And this is the big, jumbo chocolate chip cookie that I baked. Um, I’ll put a recipe
down below so if you’re interested in baking a big jumbo cookie, feel free!
I'm also gonna cut it out.
Oh this looks so good!
Just took the cakes out of the fridge and now I’m gonna put them on top of this spinner,
a cake spinner! That’s what I’m gonna be decorating my cake on top of today!
Now we’re gonna take must-patula, and we’re gonna put down a little bit of
buttercream frosting and I’m just gonna put a little bit so that the cookie
will stick on top.
Ohhhhh! So difficult, there we go, there we go! Nice!
Perfect! Da-da!
Now we’re gonna take 1 more layer of frosting, Here we go!
Line his little ears up, pewm!
Now we’re gonna cover the whole thing, we’re gonna frost the whole thing and
then we’re gonna put fondant on top!
Meow we’re gonna roll out our fondant!
We’re gonna take a little bit of powdered sugar, put it on top of this wax paper
that I put down on the table, and it’s so your fondant doesn’t stick to the table.
Roll it around.
Here is my big piece of fondant, I’ll put a recipe down below if you want to make
fondant by yourself. There’s a marshmallow fondant recipe.
Um, I dyed it gray with just a little bit of food coloring, black food coloring,
and just worked it in. OK, and now we’re just gonna roll it out.
Once you got your fondant all rolled out, you’re just gonna take this 1, it’s
all smooth, kind of like a plastic roller. And we got the cake out of the fridge.
And now what I’m gonna do is gently roll the fondant on top of this plastic…
Ehwww, ewp! There we go! There we go! There we go!
It wants to stick but I’m not going to allow it!
I’m not gonna allow it! OK, I’m gonna pick this puppy up, bring my cake over,
and here we go! Whoa! Ha-ha perfect!
OK, I may have used a little bit too much fondant, because I eyeballed it, so I went
a little bit crazy, but what you can do is just press your fondant down and smooth
it out, all over the cake, and to the sides. Just press along the sides and smooth
it out. Now we’re gonna cut off the excess, reewwwp!
Da-da-da-da-dew-da-da-da-da-da-da-dew!
Check that out! We got all the fondant on little kitty!
All the way around, oh and I can do a little spin move, ready?
And now, I’ve taken a strip of our extra fondant because we had so much. And I’m
gonna roll it out to be all the same size, and I’m just gonna put it at the bottom
all the way around to be a cute little border.
Because I had a lot of… Extra fondant…
Ooooh! Now we’re gonna roll out some black fondant for the details on top!
Purr-fect!
Now that we’ve got the main details of our cake all framed out, we’re just gonna go
and make his little eyeballs and little whiskers, and just make all the little details.
Ta-da! Here is our Pusheen Chocolate Cookie Cake!
It’s so cute! And he loves eating those chocolate cookies, so I thought
it was just perfect! Aw! One of my favorite comics, I like when he’s like, kneading
the bread all the time. Because cats when they’re happy and they’re purring, they’re
always like, purrrrrrrrr!
They’re like kneading dough, it’s so funny, I love it!
OK, thanks you guys for suggesting it, and if you have any other ideas for any
other Nerdy Nummies, please let me know, leave me a comment down below and I will
do my best to make it happen!
OK, thanks again, bye-bye!
