A pretty pink vanilla cake for Valentine’s Day! Decorated with heart chocolate lollipops, chocolate lips, vanilla buttercream and Valentine’s Day sprinkles. FULL RECIPE BELOW!

The ULTIMATE Valentine’s Day Cake

Ingredients

Four 6” cakes from vanilla cake base (recipe here: )
Vanilla buttercream recipe, doubled, half dyed pink (recipe here: )
melted red and pink candy melts
3 varieties of Valentine’s Day sprinkles
Chocolate Lollipops (recipe here: )

Directions

1. Pour the pink candy melts in to a heart-shaped chocolate mold. I used the adorable 8-bit heart mold from Rosanna Pansino’s collaboration with Wilton. Place in the fridge to chill until ready to be used.
2. Pour the red candy melts and any remaining pink candy melts into a lip-shaped chocolate mold. Sprinkle some small sprinkles on top, to create a decorative back to the chocolates. Place in the fridge to chill until you need them.
3. Place the pink and white buttercream into piping bags fitted with large, round piping tips. Slice the tops and bottoms off the cake layers and stack on a rotating cake stand. Pipe alternating rings of pink and white buttercream between each layer. Then pipe horizontal stripes around the outside of the cake and dollop some more pink buttercream on the top of the cake. Use a cake spatula to smooth the sides. Remember to wipe the spatula clean after each time you smooth the icing. This keeps the stripes looking clean and not muddy. Then smooth the top of the cake.
4. Press some chunky Valentine’s Day sprinkles around the bottom 3 inches of the cake.
5. Place the remaining white buttercream into a piping bag fitted with a large, star-shaped piping tip (#6B). Pipe large, tall dollops all over the top of the cake and smaller dollops around the bottom of the cake.
6. Sprinkle your final variety of Valentine’s Day sprinkles onto the top of the cake. Then decorate with some Chocolate Lollipops and the chocolate lips. Place the 8-bit hearts around the base of the cake. Enjoy!
