Monster Bride and Groom Cake Decorating and Baking Tutorial

Emma starts us off by carving the basic shape for the two monsters from yummy chocolate cake.

Emma shows us how to quickly create a lovely wood effect on the cake board, which the monsters will sit on. Of course, you can decorate the board in whatever covering you like.

Time to add the heads. Emma shows us great technique to ensure they are on as securely as possible. The last thing we need is a headless monster!

Emma now adds cute little feet, arms and tails, which will be covered in fur once the sugarpaste sets. 

Adding fur can be difficult and painstaking, but Emma shows us a brilliant way to create an adorable fur effect that’s quick and easy.

Emma finishes adding the fur to the groom then adds the mouth and ears.

Using the airbrush Emma creates lovely eyes and goes on to add the claws, noses and teeth.

Emma now makes the veil for the monster bride as well as a lovely purple rose. You’ll love they way she makes the roses and in true Emma Ball style they are super quick!

The best part of any cake, time to get on with those all important finishing touches.

Emma shares some other ideas you can try out during this project. We’re sure you’ll have some of your own, and we’d love to see what brilliant alterations you’ve made.
