27.05.2024

A candy cake is a real chocolate bomb that will amaze you with its taste and design. Such a treat does not require special storage conditions, like cakes with cream and fruit, and to prepare it, you just need to know how to use scissors and glue.

To please a loved one with a sweet surprise in the form of a cake, you don’t have to be a pastry chef or love the baking process. Using your own imagination, a couple of handfuls of your favorite candies and scrap materials, spending a little free time, you can create a real masterpiece - a candy cake.

Of course, various materials can be used to create certain structural elements, so below is an approximate list of what may be required during the work process:

thick cardboard;
Styrofoam;
scissors;
sandpaper;
glue gun;
double-sided and regular tape;
PVA glue;
toothpicks or bamboo sticks;
colored corrugated paper;
various candies.

Step-by-step instruction:

First you need to make the base of the cake in the form of a round cylinder, the diameter and height of which will be equal to the diameter of the future cake. Such a frame can be glued together from thick cardboard or cut out of polystyrene foam. For smoother edges, sand the foam cylinder with sandpaper. If you plan to make a product of several tiers, then you need to make several cylinders;

You can purchase false cakes as a foam base for the cake at a confectionery store, then the task will be much easier.

Next, the base needs to be covered with colored corrugated paper. The joints around the circumference of the cylinder can be beautifully decorated with beautiful braid, beads or decorative cord. After this, sweets are glued to the side of the cylinder in a circle using double-sided tape;
An important stage in making cake decorations. Sweet flowers made from candies can become such a decor. They are all made according to the same principle: they tape candy to a skewer or toothpick, cut out petals from corrugated paper and also tape it to the toothpick. From several of these flowers you can assemble a composition to decorate the top of the cake;
When all the elements of the sweet design are ready, all that remains is to connect the tiers together, attach the top decoration and give a sweet surprise of hand-made beauty. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=34cAEiPByZM

With added juice

Children will remember this cake made from juice and sweets for a long time. It will be the center of attention at a children's party, so they will not soon want to take it apart into separate sweets and eat it. This cake can be round, like the previous options, or you can make it square.

List of required materials and tools:

penoplex 1-2 cm thick;
cardboard square box;
corrugated paper;
scissors and glue;
juices in small rectangular packages;
candies;
Double-sided tape;
satin ribbons and additional decorative elements.

Master class in steps:

Cut out a square base from penoplex foam on which to place and secure the juices. Decorate the cut of the backing with a satin ribbon; you can also tie it around the juices;
Cover a cardboard box with paper and sweets and secure it to the juices. It is not necessary to do this so that the corners coincide; you can shift it so that the corners of the upper tier “look” at the sides of the lower one;
Decorate the cake using artificial flowers, butterflies, toys, ribbon bows - those elements that will look harmonious in color and style. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UdXjEv_r79Q

Candy cake for kindergarten

For such a treat, kindergarten will need:

cardboard;
scissors;
glue;
paper;
candies.

Manufacturing technology:

Glue together the bases of two or three tiers of cakes of different diameters from cardboard, and decorate them with colored paper. You can use either regular colored paper or corrugated paper. Cover the joints with decorative elements such as braid or lace;
Glue candies to the sides of the structural elements. Rectangular-shaped confectionery products in a beautiful wrapper are suitable. You can take one type for all tiers or a separate one for each. Decorate the rows of sweets on top with a narrow lace or satin ribbon;
Connect all tiers together using glue. You can crown the composition with a soft toy, flowers or a number equal to the number of years the birthday person has turned.

If, instead of sweets in one of the tiers, you attach, for example, small bottles with soap bubbles to the side, then each of the guests will also receive a small gift as a keepsake.

Unusual “masterpiece” in the shape of a heart

On Valentine's Day or any other memorable occasion, you can please your loved one with an unusual gift in the shape of a heart, the creation of which will require:

thick cardboard;
scissors;
glue;
white and red corrugated paper;
Raffaello candies and Kinder bars;
additional elements for decoration (beads, ribbons, flowers, etc.).

Sequence of actions:

Cut out two identical hearts from thick cardboard. Along the perimeter of one of them, retreating 1.5-2 cm deep, glue a rectangular strip, the width of which is equal to the height of the Kinder bars;
Cover the resulting box and a separate heart on all sides with corrugated paper (red on the outside and white on the inside);
Using double-sided tape, glue the bars to the side of the box, and tape the heart-shaped lid in several places from the inside so that it can be opened;

Pour Raffaello candies into the middle of the box, and decorate the top of the box cake to your liking. In this case, the cake decoration can be made from a small soft toy, candy flowers, a box with jewelry, for example, a ring, if the man decided to propose marriage in this way.

Gifts are always a problem. No matter how long we know a person, how much money we have, on the eve of the holiday we will still rack our brains over what to give. In addition to the gift itself, as a rule, flowers and sweets are often included with it. Pleasant, but hackneyed - what could be more formal than a box of chocolates, which, on occasion and necessity, we present to doctors, teachers, and housing and communal services workers. That is why, recently, faceless chocolate sets have been replaced by homemade candy cakes.

Thus, the essence does not change - a sweet addition is attached to the main gift. But appreciate the difference in the approach - in the first case, it is a duty box bought in a nearby store, and in the second, it is a handmade work of art, into which one puts one’s soul and good attitude towards a person. Of course, it’s easier to order a beautiful cake and craftswomen who have been doing this professionally for a long time, but it won’t be the same. Therefore, we invite you to try making a cake from sweets yourself, guided by master classes, thanks to which even those who have never done hand-made can get cute cakes.

New Year's candy cake for children and adults: how to make?

We will need:

circles made of foam, of arbitrary height (focus on the height of the selected candies), the following sizes in diameter: 25.4 cm, 20.3 cm, 15.2 cm, 10.2 cm, 7.6 cm;
candies (the quantity depends on their size);
New Year-themed wrapping paper;
artificial needles, bow, mistletoe leaves for decoration;
glue gun

Deciding on a gift for any holiday is not at all an easy task, even though it is intended for your loved one, a person you know well. Many people prefer the easy way: they are not original and buy flowers and sweets. But it’s much more interesting for yourself and more enjoyable for the birthday boy to make a cake from sweets with your own hands. Such a gift will not only be remembered for a long time, but will also be a wonderful addition to the holiday menu.

As easy as pie

If you are planning to learn how to create culinary works from sweets, you can use the most universal option that is suitable for all occasions. Before starting work, prepare the necessary materials. You will need:

several types of sweets;
simple and double-sided tape;
wide satin ribbon;
gift paper (glossy, matte, corrugated or even transparent - depends on what design you have in mind for your future creation);
ordinary Whatman paper;
several toothpicks;
glue (you can use PVA, but it is better to take a stronger one so that it better bonds the materials and holds them together);
paints.

So, how to make a candy cake with your own hands? First of all, create its foundation - the cakes. But unlike the classic dessert we are used to, they will be inedible.

Cut out two identical circles and a straight strip from whatman paper. Its length should be equal to their circumference. Connect these elements with glue to form a cylindrical structure, reminiscent of the shape of a cake crust.

Cover the base with colored paints, as well as gift self-adhesive paper. To make the dessert two-tiered, construct another figure using the same pattern. But it should have a smaller diameter. To make things easier and save time, you can use round cookie or candy boxes.

When you make your own candy cake, you need to place the smaller half on top of the larger one and secure it with glue or double-sided tape. Then apply a thin layer of adhesive to their walls and fix the sweets on it. To make the dessert more beautiful, cover each base with different types of candies with bright candy wrappers. Make sure they match well in color.

After the decoration is completed, wrap the tiers with ribbon and tie it into a beautiful, neat bow. This way you will not only give the gift a festive mood, but also create an additional mount that will hold the candies on its walls.

Additional design

The next stage of working on creating a DIY candy cake is filling in the “bald spots” between the sweets. If you are creating a present for a girl, use artificial flowers for this purpose. And for a guy, you can use buttons, pieces of denim or other decorative elements.

To implement the first option, take corrugated paper, tape and a toothpick. Cut out a dozen small hearts, they will become the petals of the future flower. Stretch each of them a little with your thumbs. Do this very carefully so as not to tear the paper. DIY candy cakes, photos of which can bring a smile and tenderness to anyone, look doubly attractive with such flowers.

Glue the petals around the head of the toothpick, which in this case acts as a stem. Make two dozen of these roses to cover all the unwanted gaps in your artwork. Attach them to those places where the walls of the base are visible between the sweets.

Chocolate cake

If you are planning to make a DIY candy cake for a candy bar and cookie lover, the following method will come in handy.

To get started, gather the necessary materials:

2 cylindrical boxes of cookies or sweets (they should be of different sizes);
a circle cut out of cardboard;
double sided tape;
foil (you can take baking material); corrugated paper;
candies and thin oblong bars or chocolate cookies of the same shape.

Instructions

Start your work by creating a stand. To do this, wrap a circle of cardboard in foil and secure it with tape. Make sure that the coating fits tightly to the base and does not swell or crumple anywhere.

How to make a candy cake with your own hands? The master class further recommends gluing a large box to the finished “tray”. The most convenient way to do this is to use double-sided tape. Secure the smaller package on top in the same way.

Decorate the structure with sweets: cover the lower tier with candy bars, and the upper with candies.

You can fill a small box with any sweets, and hide an additional gift in a large one. Do not forget to cover both parts with corrugated paper before doing this.

Romantic option

DIY candy cakes, photos of which will delight your loved ones for years to come, are not at all difficult to make. You can give them not only on the occasion of a birthday, but also on other holidays or if you just want to give a pleasant surprise to someone you care about.

As a romantic gift for your other half, you can use a gentle and sophisticated option. To prepare it you will need:

a large piece of foam;
special glue gun;
satin ribbon and beads, which are useful for decoration;
wrapping paper in pastel pink, sky blue, cream or white;
oblong sweets;
the most common scissors.

Stages of work

Cut out a large and small base from foam. Decorate them with wrapping paper. To fix it you will need a glue gun. Connect the parts together and secure the candies to their walls using double-sided tape.

How to make a candy cake with your own hands? The master class advises moving further to the stage of decorating the product. Wrap both halves with tape. Separately, make bows decorated with beads. Place them in a loose order around the perimeter of the product.

You can also complement the composition with artificial or even fresh flowers. Please note: the first option is very short-lived. Therefore, it is better to either make floral elements from paper, or attach them just before presenting the gift, if they are alive.

For the birthday boy

Handmade cakes made from chocolates and sweets are an ideal birthday gift, regardless of the age of the birthday person. Such a colorful sweet surprise will be an unforgettable present, the memory of which will warm the soul of your loved one. It can also serve as packaging for a small souvenir that you give as a gift.

There is nothing difficult about making such a candy cake with your own hands. A step-by-step description of working on it traditionally begins with preliminary preparation. You are required to collect the following materials and tools:

large fragment of foam plastic;
double-sided tape for fixing parts;
stationery scissors;
gift ribbon;
wrapping paper (plain and corrugated);
candies;
strong glue.

So let's get started

Decide on the size of your creation and cut out two identical circles from foam. Cover them with thick gift paper. You can use one color of material or combine two shades (light and dark) to make the product look more interesting. The bottom and lid of the box cake are ready. Now let's move on to its walls.

In the process of working on how to make a candy cake with your own hands, the master class advises taking the next step. Cut a ring about three centimeters wide from the same material. Glue it to one of the surfaces made earlier. You should end up with a figure similar in shape to a low, wide glass.

The second circle does not need to be fully attached - it will act as a kind of lid. You can only secure it with a small vertical strip of tape so that it doesn’t fall off at the most inopportune moment and ruin the surprise.

The master class advises decorating a cake made from sweets with your own hands, using double-sided tape, on which the sweets will stick perfectly.

Please note: when attaching the bars, you must ensure that the inscriptions on their packaging lie in the same direction (only from bottom to top or vice versa, but not mixed up). Otherwise, the whole composition will look sloppy and careless.

After the bulk of the decor has been applied and fixed, decorate the structure with a ribbon and bow.

More edible

You can also make your own cakes from chocolates and sweets using dough. In this case, instead of artificial cakes, you must use baked ones. They can be covered along the edges with bars and cookies, and sprinkled with small sweets on top and decorated with edible and not so edible toys.

Fill the cavity inside with candy or place a gift inside. Cover the whole thing with a lid and, if desired, decorate it with flowers, toys or a congratulatory message.

Another interesting option is to melt the chocolate bars, pour the resulting mass into an iron mold (this will be the bottom of the cake) and build walls of bars around the edges.

After the mass hardens, carefully turn the container over so that its contents fall out without falling apart. Then pour different goodies inside - a DIY candy cake for beginners is ready.

Almost everyone loves sweets, so candy cakes are becoming increasingly popular every day. No wonder, because such products look solemn and festive. In addition, such a gift is easy to make with your own hands!

Candy cake: ideas

Making a chocolate cake with your own hands is not very difficult. To do this, you need to be creative and use the right products.

There are many ways to decorate such a delicacy. In this article we will present the most popular and simple recipes, which will not require much effort and time to implement.

DIY chocolate cake. Master Class

If you don’t want to bake biscuits or cakes, then we suggest making one for which you only need chocolates and a set of stationery.

So how to make a chocolate cake with your own hands? To do this you need to prepare:

chocolate bars in wrappers (such as Mars, Snickers, Milkyway, Twix, etc.) - at your discretion;
cardboard (not very thick);
wrapping paper;
scissors, glue, single-sided tape, double-sided adhesive tape;
confetti or crepe paper.

Making a frame

Before you make a chocolate cake with your own hands, you need to make a frame. For this we decided to use regular cardboard. It is cut into two strips 10 cm wide. In this case, one strip should be longer than the other.

By gluing the ends of the cardboard, you should get two end-to-end cylinders, the diameters of which are 25 and 15 cm, respectively. After this, they begin to create the lid. To do this, circles are cut out of cardboard, the diameter of which also corresponds to 25 and 15 cm. They are glued to the cylinders with tape and beautifully wrapped in multi-colored gift paper. If you don’t have one, then you can use regular candy wrappers.

As soon as the cylinders are ready, they are placed on top of each other (small on large) and carefully secured with tape.

As a result of the described actions, you should get a beautiful frame for the future two-story cake.

Decoration process

Making a chocolate cake with your own hands is much faster than a classic sponge cake dessert. Moreover, such a delicacy turns out to be very original. By preparing it for your child, you will give him a huge amount of positive emotions.

So how should you make your own chocolate cake? To do this, we need a regular double-sided one. It is attached to the back of the wrapped bars, and then the protective layer is carefully removed and glued to the lower tier of the frame.

The chocolates should be placed very tightly in this way. If at the very end you have too little space left for a standard candy bar, then you can purchase a narrower candy in a wrapper.

The second tier of the frame is decorated in a similar way.

After the sides of the cake are covered with chocolate, its free upper parts are sprinkled with confetti or shredded corrugated paper.

How to serve?

As you can see, making a chocolate cake with your own hands (a photo of the dessert is presented in this article) is not so difficult. After it is formed, it must be placed on a beautiful flat dish and served.

The big advantage of this delicacy is not only the speed of its preparation and the absence of heat treatment, but also the ability to store it not in the refrigerator, but at room temperature (just not in the sun).

Making it out of candy

A handmade cake made from chocolates and sweets will definitely delight your children. This delicacy can be decorated in different ways. If you want to get a tall dessert consisting of several tiers, then we suggest using this recipe. To implement it we will need:

circles made of dense foam plastic of arbitrary height (you need to focus on the height of the candies), the diameter of which is 25, 20, 15, 10 and 7 cm, respectively;
any large candies;
any wrapping paper;
mistletoe leaves, artificial pine needles, bow for decoration;
glue gun

Step by step cooking process

How to make a cake from chocolates and sweets with your own hands? First you need to process the main ingredient. Small chocolates or large candies need to be wrapped in gift paper so that they look similar in appearance. If you purchased the treat in the same wrapper, then this procedure can be omitted.

Foam circles should also be treated separately. To do this, they are wrapped in gift paper, which is secured with Next, all the circles are stacked on top of each other, starting from largest to smallest. At the same time, they are well connected to each other.

After preparing the frame and sweets, they begin to form the cake. It is done exactly the same way as described above. A small amount of glue is applied to the back of the candies, and then they are pressed firmly against the side surfaces of the frame.

Final stage

After all the candies are glued to the foam circles, start decorating the cake. For this purpose, bows and mistletoe leaves are used.

Having strictly followed all the described steps, you should get a very tall and beautiful dessert. It should be served on a large cake plate along with a cup of tea.

DIY chocolate cakes: step-by-step photos, preparation

Above we have presented to your attention two ways to make dessert from chocolates and candies at home. Such recipes are especially popular among those who do not know how to bake.

If you like to tinker with dough, then you can make a birthday cake with chocolates using a home-baked sponge cake. We will tell you exactly how to implement this recipe right now. For this we need:

Preparing the biscuit

Before you create a cake from Kinder chocolates with your own hands, you should prepare a sponge cake. To do this, add sugar to the egg yolks and rub vigorously with a spoon. Next, beat the whites until stiff peaks form and add them to the yolks.

After thoroughly mixing the ingredients, add cocoa (four large spoons) and light sifted flour. The result is a fluffy and homogeneous dough with a viscous consistency. It is placed in a greased form and sent to the oven.

The chocolate sponge cake is baked for about an hour at a temperature of 200 degrees. After the specified time has passed, it is taken out, placed on a cake pan and cooled. After this, the biscuit is cut into two identical cake layers.

Cream preparation process

It is better to use butter cream for this cake. It will allow you to hold the chocolates together well and get a very beautiful and original dessert.

To prepare the cream, beat the butter vigorously using a mixer, and then gradually add the remaining cocoa and condensed milk to it. By thoroughly mixing the ingredients, you get a very fluffy and aromatic chocolate mass.

Forming the cake

This dessert is easy and simple to form. First, the surface of one of the cakes is thoroughly greased with butter cream and sprinkled with a small amount of M&M's candies. After that, it is covered with a second sponge cake. Pressing the cakes tightly, they are evenly greased with the remaining cream (including the side parts of the semi-finished product).

If you think that the dessert will be too dry, then the sponge cake should be pre-soaked in some syrup.

After the described steps, you get the classic one. Of course, it can be used in this form. However, it will be better if the delicacy is decorated with chocolates.

Decoration process

Decorating a cake from Kit-Kat chocolates with your own hands follows the same principle as in the two previous recipes. To do this, the waffle delicacy is alternately attached to the side surface of the dessert. If you've used enough buttercream, the chocolates should hold up pretty tightly. By the way, instead of Kit-Kat, you can use similar products like Kinder. If desired, these chocolates can be combined by sticking them alternately to the side surface of the cake.

If it seems to you that the products are not holding well, then they must be additionally secured with a beautiful satin ribbon. This way your cake will definitely not fall into pieces, but will turn out even more original.

After the side parts of the dessert are covered with columns of chocolate, they begin to decorate the surface of the homemade delicacy. For this we decided to use M&M's. It is simply placed on the surface of the cake, and then sprinkled with confectionery shavings of a contrasting color.

How to serve at the holiday table?

Unlike the cakes presented above, a chocolate dessert based on a sponge cake should be kept in the refrigerator for several hours. This is necessary so that the cakes are well saturated with cream and syrup.

Then the cake with chocolates is served to the table. It is carefully cut into pieces (for example, three chocolates on the side) and served to guests along with a glass of tea.

Let's sum it up

Now you know the simplest and most popular recipes for cakes with chocolates and candies. By putting these methods into practice, you are sure to get incredibly beautiful and delicious desserts that are ideal for any holiday table.

By showing your imagination, you can come up with your own methods. Success in creativity!
