Preheat the oven to 180°C (convection oven 160°C) and grease the 2 baking pans with FunCakes Bake Release Spray.
Prepare 400 g FunCakes Mix for Sponge Cake Deluxe and as indicated on the package and divide the batter between the 2 baking pans. Bake the cakes for approximately 30-35 minutes until done. Immediately after baking, dump them on a cooling grid and let the cake cool down.
Prepare 400 g FunCakes Mix for Enchanted Cream® as indicated on the package and flavour with the FunCakes Flavour Paste Elderflower.
Cut both cakes with the cake leveler 2x and stack on top of each other with Enchanted Cream®. Start and end stacking with the bottom of the cake, this way you get a nice straight cake.
Pierce two dowels into the cake from top to bottom and cut to size. Place the cake on the turntable and spread it all around with a thick layer of Enchanted Cream®.
Divide the rest of the Enchanted Cream® into sections and colour this with the FunCakes Food Colour Gel. Put these colours of cream separately into decorating bags and cut off a small tip.
Swirl the coloured cream between the ridges on the cake. When you have put all the colours between the ridges, use the smooth side of the scraper to pull the cake smooth again.
Put a sheet of cling film on the counter and spread the remaining coloured cream lengthwise on the cling film and roll it into a long sausage. Cut off 1 side of the roll and put this in a decorating bag with tip #1M. Swirl a nice coloured border on top of the cake and sprinkle some FunCakes Nonpareils Pastel on top.
Now carefully press the FunCakes Wafer Flowers and Leaves against the cake.
