Utilize simple tools like a pallet knife, piping bag, and cookie cutter to design the cake in many ways.
Naked frosting and drip effects don't require much work and give the cake a rustic trendy look.
Use creative toppings like bright fruits, berries, flower petals, candies and chocolate to decorate the cake.
