This was little cheering cake for a friend. I baked two rectangles
shaped sponges and cut circle shapes out of it. Sponges were moist with
mandarin juice, glued with buttercream and mandarin segments.
Sponge 2x 200g of sugar
200g
of self-rising flour
200g
of butter
1
table spoon of baking soda
3
table spoon of water (I used mandarin compote juice)
Also
Ready
to roll icing – white
Food
coloring – pink and green
Mandarin
compote
Yellow
ribbon
And
Barbie
Buttercream (75g of
butter + 175g of icing sugar +2 table spoon of milk and tea spoon of vanilla essence + mandarin zest)
The skirt was firstly covered by pink icing to create an
illusion of underskirt, then white panel – front part. Take fork and press it
so it looks like folds of skirt. Then soft-green covers it all. Do not press
down leave the natural shape.
Use white piping to cover up the edges of skirts. Pipe dots
on the front of the cake. Pink pearly sweets go around the back skirt.
Barbie got covered in cling film everywhere the icing go.
Place Barbie in the cake. Piece of pink icing will cover Barbie’s bottom –
skirt and white icing covered by pink sugar will be top of the dress. Pipe
white icing as lace around the neck. Put pink ribbon at the back of the skirt.
Yellow ribbon is a belt.
Place pink pearly sweets where pink skirt meets green one. I
place additional white icing and pink sugar circles on the back of the skirt
but it is optional.
