Cake is the thing everyone is looking forward to so it needs
to be just right.
My little one wanted themed cake but find one for so many
people would be costly. Also I wanted something more individual, flavors and
colors of her choice. She picked Hello Kitty and this is how it ended:
Internet search engine found fairly nice picture. I took a
paper the same size as was my large rectangle baking tin. There were some minor
modification made but it still remained recognizable shape. The paper was cut
out ready to be put over baked sponges. The recipe I use is mostly the same.
Each sponge : 3 eggs, 200 g of flour, 200 g of butter, 200 g
of sugar, 1 table spoon of baking soda, 3 spoons of water.
Basic buttercream: Icing is 75 g of butter with 175 g of
icing sugar with 1 tea spoon of vanilla essence and 2 table spoon of milk.
One sponge is covered by jam, other with buttercream. Glue sponges
together and cover them with paper template. Cut around the template to get 2D
shape of cake. Using sharp knife cut into cake to create 3D effect.
Cover the cake with jam and put into the fridge until ready
to be covered with icing. Choose colors to mix the icing. Cover cake section
after section until complete covering is achieved. To complete Hello Kitty look mix black icing
and follow the contours of icing to create cartoon look. Don’t forget the whiskers.
I also used fairy dust .
Decorate the Kitty with beads and butterflies.
That should do !!!
