Those are layered mousse cakes made with recipes and silicone molds by the Ukrainian pastry chef Dinara Kasko :)

haha i'm sorry you missed the party, i hope it arrives not too much flattened in the envelope ☺️
Works of art. They look delicious!
thank you so much! it took four days to finish everything but it was worth it, i need to buy more molds to be able to scale up the operation, mixing more ingredients at once is the same amount of work, but god it's so much cleaning, 15 different preparations, each time a sink full with pots, whisks, spoons, bowls... :)
Okay dude. How can you get such realistic looking lighting and backdrop for your Blender renders????
Seriously though those cakes look damn unreal.
i've started learning blender this week, by following the famous Donut tutorial by Blender Guru, i'll let you know when i manage to do that ^^
the velvet technique is just amazing, the cake are frozen solid and then i use a paint pistol with an air compressor to project a molten mix of cocoa butter and white chocolate with food coloring on the cake. the temperature difference makes the droplets freeze instantly
dude this is cool af

Oh, okay. So pretty simple stuff, really.
2 hours later
So, I shot the paint can with my pistol and that just started leaking everywhere. So I moved on to my molten cocaine butter knifes, but I couldn't find my cake in the whole mess. I figured if I used the air compressor to fill my projector with the cocaine lava and white chocolate, things would kinda just come together, but that splashed in my eyes, which really stung. Anyway, can you drive me to the hospital?
lol have you been spying in my kitchen? the first time i tried using the compressor, it was set to the max pressure (8 bar), and i sprayed 100g of chocolate into the air in 2 seconds. everything around was covered in a thin layer of chocolate, in a heavy haze, it took days to get everything cleaned 🙀
Just so you know in the future, that method of painting is called airbrushing, and the whole setup is called an airbrush.
ty good to know!
Fake! I don't see the default cube anywhere!
The first pic had nine default cubes and some raspberries 🤔
someday i'll pile up three of those, you'll be the first to know ^^
What the hell…. I want to tell you how awesome this is but I don’t know how. Seriously, no words, sorry.
i think you just did 🫶❤️
❤️ I think I would cry if someone ever presented something like this to me, I don’t know if I could bring myself to eat it. Thank you for sharing and responding so kindly to a complete stranger in awe at your art. Those close to you are fortunate in so many ways most will never know. All the thought, preparation, practice, effort, self recognition, grounded personality. You are unreal, this thread has been in my mind since I initially saw it and you helped me find my words, thank you for that. I wish you nothing more in life than you present to it, only because more doesn’t exist.
that's so kind of you! i wish i could share more than how it looks but if a lemming ever visits my corner of the planet (SW Germany), i'd absolutely share :)
my go to answer when the guests say they don't dare to eat it is: the sooner it's gone, the sooner i can bake something new ^^
here's a photo gallery from cakes i made during my online lessons last spring

Wow, this is beautiful. You should go on Cake Boss or whatever the cake competition show is called.
i've had this suggestion numerous times, but at the end of the day i hate competition and i'll rather bake for my loved ones instead :)
You're wise to recognize that. Competition is a good way to suck the joy out of something you love. It's just really amazing, world-class art you've created here, which is why I suggested it. But it's totally okay to keep something outstanding for yourself and your loved ones.
it's probably better entertainment to have a competition of some kind on TV ^^
i already get requests from friends and colleagues and i can already tell you: im never making a Paw Patrol cake for a 3yo ever xD
Now do a Companion Cube cake.
that would be an idea! it's such a great motive :D

I like the "bananas" and "oranges" aesthetic.
This post is simply amazing. I don't think I couldanage these results, even with a week to spare. Exceptional work!
it takes some learning and i had courses to learn it, but fundamentally it's not complex, just many small steps and a crapton of ingredients + utensils :)
I watch a lot of baking shows and your cake is easily the most beautiful cake I’ve ever seen!
oh wow that's quite the compliment 🫶 I strive to make everything as beautiful as possible, I come from France where pastry is ubiquitous, but I now live in Germany and it's almost impossible to buy something really nice, so i took online pastry lessons last year to learn how to make stuff myself ^^
These are really insanely gorgeous perfection
But as I read your replies in the thread I am more and more impressed at what a disaster zone your kitchen must have felt like and the endless cleaning That is a lot of love right there. Sounds like a lucky dad.
ty ^^
the disaster, fifteen times in a row:
Awe you're being humble; hiding all the counter cleaning and I suspect these are just the pieces you prefer to handwash.
Wow those are beautiful, what are the flavors?
oh i forgot to write that, thank you for asking
the white one is a champagne mousse cake with a layer of raspberry jam, champagne jelly, a sponge cake with blueberries and a crunchy bottom layer with milk chocolate and hazelnut
the bananas have a banana caramel core, an orange juice dark chocolate mousse and a cocoa sponge cake (lactose and gluten free), on a vanilla-butter cookie
the whirls are greek yogurt mousse with a blue berry jam core encased in a passion fruit white chocolate ganache, cocoa almond sponge cake, on a vanilla-butter cookie
That all sounds delicious 😊
also thank you for adding photos of the process in the comments!

Honestly, the best picture is big guy morgunkorn hunched over airbrushing pastries, doing what he loves.
Cakes look amazing, I might need to pick up another hobby. Great job my dude.

Looks amazing!
SCRUMPTIOUS
CUBE
This calls for a tic-tac-toe game ☺️
Hey man, you can't do this to me on a Sunday morning. I've been a pie>cake guy my whole life and now you have me questioning everything.
sorry to shatter your assumptions, but pies are great too!
I made those for the epiphany last week:
Looks INCREDIBLE, what kind is it?
thank you 😊
- the big cake is a champagne and raspberry jam mousse cake
- the bananas are chocolate mousse with a banana and caramel core
- the twisters are greek yogurt mousse with blueberry jam filling
I think the other person wanted to know what the pie filling is. Or at least I do :)
And how did you get the crust so dark?
