pastel coffin cake | making a vintage pastel goth gothic romance cake

Welcome to a very romantic gothic victorian pastel episode. This week I’m making a pastel coffin cake for spooky season or anytime you may feel like celebrating going gentle into that good night. I’m using my gluten-free chocolate cake recipe and dairy-free swiss meringue buttercream. But honestly you could use boxed. It would still be very good. I use vintage cake decorating techniques to give it that pastel vintage victorian look that I love. Enjoy and rest in peace. Sorry the camera isnt at the perfect angle! I ddnt expect the cake to be so tall!
