This soft pink cake with pastel piping and sprinkled trees was such a joy to create and perfect if you want a simple design that still feels fun, festive, and elegant. I loved how the gentle colors gave it a dreamy, wintery feel without being too bold. This cake turned out even cuter than I imagined, and it's such a fun one to customize with different sprinkle colors or even more trees.

Color & Whipped Cream Prep
I started by tinting my whipped cream in three main colors
A soft pastel pink for the base
A pretty teal-blue for the border
A light green for the trees
I used my usual non-dairy whipped cream, whipped to medium-stiff peaks, and added gel coloring little by little to keep the tones nice and soft.
Covering the Cake
I used a turntable and offset spatula to cover the cake with the pastel pink whipped cream. To add a bit of texture to the sides, I ran kooteks textured cake comb around the cake once the whipped cream was smoothed out. This instantly gave the cake a clean, cozy look!
Piping the Trees
Using several different piping tips, I piped on a variety of trees around the sides of the cake. I used a coupler to easily switch between tips without changing bags, which I highly recommend when using whipped cream. It makes the process so smooth!
The different textures from each tip helped give the trees more dimension and charm. Some of the trees are more layered and wavy, others are simple and clean. I added little pink candy pearls and sprinkles as ornaments, and they made the whole cake pop!
Adding Borders & Final Touches
On top of the cake, I piped a three-layer border using different tips to give it that whimsical, almost candy-like feel. I used pink and white, and paired it with teal for extra contrast.I finished the bottom off with a snowy whipped cream border all around, piped to look like fluffy snow!
