In the video, a person is seen using aluminum foil to cover a round cake. The person is wearing a gold watch on their left wrist and is standing in front of a pink and white checkered tablecloth. The cake is placed on a gold cake board, and the person is using their hands to smooth out the foil and ensure it covers the entire cake. The foil is crinkled and shiny, and the person's hands are visible as they work to cover the cake.
