Alcohol Cakes

Decorating alcohol cakes is a great alternative to bringing the actual alcohol - and the kids will enjoy them, too. Here are a few different cakes designed after beer, wine, and liquor bottles.

Beefeater Bottle Cake |
![]() I baked a few sheet cakes, froze them and then carved them into the shape of the bottle. (It's much easier to carve a cake when the cake is frozen first). I used red fondant to make the cap and white fondant for the label. Then the label was painted with food coloring and I used edible markers for the details. Frosted with swiss buttercream. Tip: You can create an exact replica of any label by scanning it and printing it out on to an edible image. If you don't own an edible image printer, you can send your images to various websites who will print out the image and mail it to you. |

Tequila Silver Patron Bottle Cake |
![]() We started out with a rectangle cake pan and baked 2 cakes. Then started carving it into squares and then we would torte each layer and stack until the height became exact as the real silver patron bottle. Then we started carving down the top into the shape of the dome. Once cake was shaped we covered it in fondant. Then used cereal treats to make the neck of the bottle and covered that in fondant as well. We used the cereal treats to make the cork as well and that we left as it to look like a real cork. We painted the bottle with silver metallic mixed with tequila and cut out all labels, limes, tags by hand. Also made little patron shot glass and filled it with piping gel (this seemed to be the biggest hit of the cake!) Then free handed the writing on the label to match the bottle exactly. This was such a huge hit for a 30th birthday! The birthday man picked it up removed the cork and tried drinking it, the pictures were great! Hope you enjoy it! |
