Who can resist that adorable blue koala-like alien who stole the hearts of children and adults since its first appearance in 2002? If you want to bake a custom cake for your child, then a Stitch cake is just the right one for you to try. Children love this cute, cuddly extraterrestrial, and a cake based on him will be a huge hit.
So, What Exactly Is a Stitch Cake?
It is a cake artfully decorated to resemble the movie character Stitch (based on the Disney Movie Lilo and Stitch). You can make it as decadent or as simple as you want it. You have several options to consider for a stitch-themed birthday cake. You can either make a 3-D Stitch cake or a Stitch face cake. You can even opt for a Stitch topper on a birthday cake. Buying an impression cake with an” edible” Stitch specially printed on it is another option if you are short on time.
Planning for a Stitch-themed Cake
Baking a custom cake does not necessarily mean it has to be entirely from scratch. Bake it from scratch or a box of cake mix; it’s sure to be “yummy” either way. Choose from vanilla or chocolate, round, square, rectangle, fondant or plain cake, or cupcakes.
Note: Fondant is a type of icing made of a sugar and water paste, used for decorative purposes.
What Goes into a Stich Birthday Cake
As with any cake, the base ingredients are flour, sugar, butter, eggs, and cocoa powder (if you intend to have a chocolate cake base )

A fondant cake is a great idea when you want to bake a cake with a cartoon character like Stitch. From those floppy ears to the cute button eyes, fondant icing can give your cake a rich, three-dimensional appearance. A tiered cake will be best for this kind of custom cake.
This particular cake will likely take a lot of time, effort, and skill to bake, but this elaborate cake’s “wow ” factor will make it worth it.

If you are not a fan of fondant, then there are other ways you can make a beautiful Stitch-themed cake. You can use chocolate or strawberry ganache and gum paste made of egg whites or gelatin to make the Stitch figure.
