15 Lovely Valentine’s Day Cakes

Hi everyone! This will be my first time doing a round-up on valentine’s day cakes this year. I had so much fun looking at gorgeous cake ideas on Instagram and Pinterest! I think this day of love has the prettiest color schemes and designs (maybe because I love anything pink!) I hope you enjoy it!
Valentine’s Day Cakes Inspiration
Hugs & Kisses Cake


I love how my cake turned out! I used my Cricut Maker to create a stencil using a plastic poster board (Can be found at Michaels or any craft store). Mylar sheets will also work. I purchased the SVG file from Etsy. I used “Heartbreaker” sprinkles, a blend of red sprinkles and gold, from Fancy Sprinkles (CAKEINSPO15 for a 15% discount at checkout). The stenciling technique is best with American Buttercream because of its crusting properties. I will have a full write-up on this cake soon! Click here on how to make Glittery Chocolate Lips for a sweet treat! Too many details to share.
