Once summer arrives I like to switch up my fake bake displays every few weeks. Come in and take a look at my strawberry lemonade collection:

This series of photos are going from left to right on the breakfast room cabinet.
The two round cakes are made with Dollar Tree foam rounds and painted in acrylic. The red cake I glued the rounds together and coated with light weight spackle before painting. For the layer cake I painted the rounds first and then sandwiched together with light weight spackle. The dripping red sauce is also acrylic paint. The berries on top of the red cake are clay, made in a mold then painted (like this), while the plastic berries on top of the layer cake can be found here.
The mug drink was made like this and I have this tutorial for the strawberry lemonade. The jar of faux strawberries are some that I found while thrifting. They were pretty faded so I repainted them and put them in an old candle jar. The sponge cakes are made from colorful sponges that I cut and then stacked with light weight spackle in between each layer.
The strawberry shortcake printable is no longer available but you can find the strawberry layer printable here.
Over on the buffet I added a few lemon themed items as well.
The lemonade and the ice water with lemon are made in the same way as the strawberry lemonade - just use a yellow paint to color the resin for lemonade and leave it clear for water. The lemon topped mug drinks were made in the same way as the strawberry one from the cabinet display. You can find faux whole lemons here, sliced lemons here, wedged lemons here and ice here.
The strawberry bowls are a vintage set that I found at Goodwill and the cupcakes I made like this. I can't remember where I found the loose strawberries that are on the tiered tray, but here are similar. They have the same size and texture but are a solid red whereas mine have white spots. You could always paint some on it you really wanted to.
And that's my strawberry lemonade collection!
