DIY Speckled Egg Cake Tutorial from The Cake Blog here. Not as hard as it looks - you can buy large candy eggs and the splatter “paint” is vanilla extract and cocoa powder. After taking cake decorating classes I can tell you the key to smooth frosting is the initial “crumb coat” of frosting. The next layer of frosting can be smoothed out with a hot knife. First seen at Oh Happy Day here.
