Recipe of Flower cake

1

Preheat the oven to 175°C (convection oven 160°C).

2

Prepare 250 g FunCakes Mix for Sponge Cake Deluxe according to the instructions on the package. Grease the baking pan with Bake Release Spray and raise the baking pan with a strip of parchment paper on the inside of the pan. Spoon the batter into the pan and bake the sponge cake for about 30-35 minutes. Let the cake cool down by using a cooling grid.

 

3

Prepare 200 g FunCakes Mix for Swiss Meringue Buttercream according to the instructions on the package.

4

Prepare 100 g FunCakes Mix for Royal icing according to the instructions on the package. Color the royal icing red and put it in a decorating bag with adapter and tip #102. Pipe small flower buds on a sheet of parchment paper. Make sure that the thick part of the nozzle is on the baking paper and make a kind of loop. This is your first petal.

5

Now place the nozzle perpendicular to the bottom of your first sprayed leaf and curl the second leaf over it. Let it air dry, preferably overnight.

6

Cut the sponge cake with the cake leveler 2 or 3 times and fill with jam of your choice and the swiss meringue buttercream. Cover the entire outside with a layer of cream and let it set in the refrigerator. Then apply a second layer of cream and let it set again in the refrigerator.

7
Knead the fondant well and roll it out to a thickness of about 2 to 3 mm and cover the cake with it.
8

Draw twigs with leaves and flowers on the cake with the edible markers and stick a red flower bud here and there with some royal icing.
