Steps:
- Galaxy cakes have exploded on Instagram, but making the mirror glaze on top can be tricky. We created this easy version using store-bought frosting instead. Place a round layer cake on an upside-down cake pan set on a baking sheet and cover with a thin, even layer of white frosting. Tint 2 cups frosting dark blue using gel food coloring, then tint another 1/2 cup teal, 1/2 cup purple and 1/2 cup royal blue. Microwave the dark blue frosting in 30-second intervals until it's very runny, then repeat with the other colors. Working quickly, pour the dark blue frosting over the cake to cover completely, letting it drip down the side. Drizzle a few lines of the other colors over the cake, then smooth over them with an offset spatula. Using a small pastry brush, splatter the top with white food coloring, sprinkle with edible glitter and let set.

Steps:
- Prepare the cakes according to the package, or use your favorite cake recipe.
- To make the buttercream, mix the butter, vanilla, milk, and powdered sugar in a bowl with a hand mixer.
- Once the cakes are baked and cooled, place one cake on a turntable. If you don't have one, you can use a plate. Slice the top off the cakes to create a flat surface.
- Place a large dollop of the buttercream on the cake and spread to create an even middle layer of frosting.
- Place the second cake over the layer of buttercream.
- Frost the entire cake to create the crumb layer, creating a smooth surface.
- Place the cake in the freezer to keep cold.
- For the glaze, boil the water, sugar, and condensed milk in a pot for 1 minute, then remove from heat.
- Bloom the gelatin in 8 cups (2 liters) of cold water for 5 minutes, then wring the gelatin sheets of excess water and mix into the sugar mixture.
- Pour the sugar mixture over the chocolate, letting it sit for 2-3 minutes to allow the chocolate to soften.
- Using an immersion blender, carefully blend the chocolate and the liquid, making sure that you are not blending in air bubbles by lifting up the blender too high.
- Pour the glaze through a sieve into a large bowl to remove any excess bubbles.
- Separate the glaze into 5 different bowls (one medium-sized bowl and four smaller bowls).
- Color the biggest bowl of glaze with black and navy blue food coloring, stir the coloring with the glaze until the color is distributed evenly.
- In the next bowl, add the navy blue food coloring and stir.
- In the next bowl, add the lighter blue food coloring and stir.
- In the next bowl, add the purple food coloring and stir.
- In the next bowl, add the pink food coloring and stir.
- When you are ready to use the glaze, make sure each one is around 90-96°F (32-35°C). Microwave if necessary. Pour the colored glazes back into the biggest bowl of black and blue glaze. Swirl them gently with a spoon.
- Place the cake on a stand over a sheet tray to catch any excess glaze. Carefully pour the glaze over the cake.
- Dip a brush into the white food coloring and fling it onto the cake to create stars.
- Enjoy!

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325.
- Grease three 9-in. cake pans and dust them with confectioner's sugar. To make the cake, melt the Milky Way bars with 1 stick of butter. Remove from heat and let cool.
- Cream the remaining 2 sticks of butter with the granulated sugar. Add the beaten eggs and the cooled chocolate mixture.
- Sift the flour and the baking soda together. Alternately add the flour and buttermilk to the batter, blending well. Add the nuts and vanilla.
- Divide the batter among the prepared pans and bake for 30-40 minute or until the cake is firm to the touch. Cool for 5 minutes, remove from the pans and place on cooling racks.
- While the cake cools prepare the icing. Combine the sugar and milk in a heavy saucepan. Cook to the soft-ball stage (234 degrees on a candy thermometer). Remove the pan from the heat and add the marshmallow cream, butter and chocolate chips, stirring until melted. Add the pecans. When the cake has cooled completely, frost each layer, sides and top of the Milky Way Cake.
