iPad Cake Recipe
All your favourite Apps on two iPad cakes. A few weeks ago I asked you to name your favourite Apps and the response was absolutely huge! So after adding them all up, here are the most requested icons squeezed onto two iPad cakes. I’ll show you two methods to make this cake in the video below.
To make the iPad cake you will need:
1 1/2 x the rich chocolate cake recipe baked in two trays
2x frosting recipe I used 1x american butter cream and 1 x white chocolate ganache whipped together
2kg (4.41 pounds) white fondant
Gel food colouring
blue powdered food colour
silver luster dust (for the apple on the side of the box)
100g (3.53 ounces) black fondant
cake board
optional – app cutter made from aluminium flashing 0.3mm thick so it is easy to bend but holds its shape
optional – fondant extruder
optional – ipad printed icing sheet, download the template or make your own and email to one of the many online companies that print onto icing sheets.
You can make the apps with fondant like the one above or with a printed icing sheet like the one below

Hi Ann this is my cake I did and I am onl 11 it was a first try effort is it good
Fantastic work Paige! Great effort. My first cake like this wasn’t anywhere near as good.
Hi Ann,
What size cookie sheet did you use?
Hi! I was hoping you could tell me what type of edible printer you use? I have tried 2 different types but both were not good? picture was always off color and faded.
Hi Octavia cooks. Ann has found that you can get better quality printibles by ordering them online rather than trying to do them yourself. The commercial product seems much better and you can easily request a particular pic and order via cake decorating stores or online avenues.
Hi Ann I wondered if you could somehow make a SHOPKIN cake made with fondant icing and maybe a little bit of powder for the powder bombs and stuff thank Ann I love your cakes and I hope you can get back to me!!! Thanks♥
thanks for the suggestion, I’ll add it to the request list 🙂
Hi Ann.
Thank you very much for all your videos
Awesome ipad Cake Mary. Well done!!
hi Ann,
instead of fondant could I print a sheet out of apps and put a sheet of baking paper over and use chocolate and white chocolate with gel food colouring to make different apps please!???
Hi Laura, you could try that. Probably best to make the apps on acetate rather than baking paper so they are easy to remove.
thanks xx
How thick did u make ur app cutter?
Hi Flowerlemony, Ann made her cutter using Aluminium flashing that she bent into the correct shape.
Hi, Love the ipad cake, but when you say bake in two trays, can you give the size of the trays please.
Hi Jackie, Ann used 2 trays 10inch x 15inch, though it won’t matter if your tray sizes are slightly different.
Hi anna What size was the app cutter that yout and what is the dimensions of the apps.
I Love Cook

How long time does the cake use for be firmed up?
Hi Martha, If you are referring to the fondant decorations, Ann suggests making them 2 days ahead and they should be firmed up.
Okay, thank you!

Hi Fizza, aluminium flashing is easily obtained from a hardware store. Here we can get it from places like bunnings and mitre10.
