Notes:
If you want to divide this cake into a couple days, try to get to at least step 6 on day 1. Once you’re ready to pipe the background, you don’t want the buttercream to get too solid, otherwise it might crack when you wrap it around the cake.
If you notice your buttercream is soft at any point in the process, feel free to pop your design into the freezer for about 15 minutes to harden again. This is especially important if your kitchen is warm or humid.
