Preheat the oven to 180°C (convection oven 160°C) and grease the baking pan with baking spray.
Prepare 250 g FunCakes Mix for Sponge Cake Deluxe as indicated on the package and spatula into the greased baking pan. Bake the biscuit for about 30-35 minutes and immediately after baking, dump onto a cake rack and leave to cool.
Prepare 300 g FunCakes Mix for buttercream as indicated on the package.
Cut the cake 2x with the cake leveler and fill with a layer of buttercream. Then place the halved raspberries on top and a layer of raspberry jam. Spread the whole cake thinly with buttercream all around and leave to set in the fridge for an hour.
Colour enough buttercream pink with the colour gel to cover the cake a second time. Colour the rest in different shades of purple and pink with the colouring gel. Make sure you have different colours of cream for 5 piping bags.
Prepare 4 decorating bags with adaptors and small decorating tip and 1 bag with decorating tip #1M and fill them with the coloured buttercream.
Melt the FunCakes Deco Melts as indicated on the package and put it in a sealed decorating bag. Cut off a tip and make a nice drip along the top edge of the cake. Let this set in the fridge for a while.
Use the #1M to make a few nice rosettes on top of the cake. Swirl a zigzag along these rosettes with #104, making sure the thick side of the nozzle rests on the cake. With the other decorating tips, fill the holes with stars and dropflowers.
