Marmalade cat Birthday cake

For the medium sponge

a.. 175 g unsalted butter, at room temperature, plus extra for greasing 
b.. 175 g caster sugar 
c.. 3 large eggs, beaten 
d.. 1 tsp vanilla extract 
e.. 175 g plain flour 
f.. 3 tsp baking powder 
g.. 3 tbsp milk, at room temperature 
For the large sponge

a.. 250 g unsalted butter, at room temperature 
b.. 250 g caster sugar 
c.. 4 large eggs, beaten 
d.. 1 tsp vanilla extract 
e.. 250 g plain flour 
f.. 4 tsp baking powder 
g.. 3-4 tbsp milk, at room temperature 
For the buttercream

a.. 350 g unsalted butter, at room temperature 
b.. 700 g icing sugar, sifted 
c.. vanilla extract, optional 
For the decoration

a.. orange food colouring 
b.. 2 green fruit pastille sweets 
c.. small liquorice sweets 
d.. 1 large strip liquorice 
e.. black writing icing 
Method
1.. For the sponge cakes: preheat the oven to 180C/Gas 4. Grease one 18cm and 
one 23cm round springform cake tin with butter and line the bases with greased 
baking parchment. 

2. Make the medium and large sponge cake batters separately, following this 
method. Cream the butter and sugar in an electric mixer until pale, light and 
fluffy, about 2-3 minutes. Very gradually add the beaten eggs, mixing well 
between each addition and scraping down the bowl with a rubber spatula from 
time to time. Stir in the vanilla extract. 

3. Sift together the plain flour and baking powder and add to the cake mixture 
in two batches, mixing until smooth. Add the milk and mix until smooth. 

4. Pour your medium sponge mixture into the 18cm cake tin and the large sponge 
mixture into the 23cm cake tin. Bake the cakes on the middle shelf of the 
preheated oven until a skewer inserted into the middle of each one comes out 
clean - the smaller cake will take about 30 minutes and the larger cake 35-40 
minutes. Leave the cakes to cool in their tins for 10 minutes before turning 
out onto a wire cooling rack. Turn the cakes the right way up and leave to cool 
completely. 

5. For the buttercream: Cream the butter in an electric mixer until really 
soft. Gradually beat in the icing sugar until pale and smooth. Add a few drops 
of vanilla extract, if using. Reserve 4-5 tablespoons of the buttercream in a 
small bowl. Tint the remainder with the orange food colouring paste, adding it 
a little at a time and mixing well between each addition, until you have the 
colour you desire. 

6. To decorate: use a long, serrated knife to level the tops of the cakes and 
make them the same height. Remove about one-third off the top of the larger 
cake by cutting it in a leaf shape and fit the smaller cake into the space 
created. Cut the leaf shape in half to make 2 triangles and position them at 
the top of the smaller cake to make the ears. 

7. Cover the cake with the orange buttercream, spreading evenly with a palette 
knife. Carefully spread the reserved plain buttercream to make a tummy shape 
and the insides of the ears. 

8. Position the fruit pastilles on the cat's face for the eyes. Slice the 
liquorice sweet into thin slices to make the nose and position the liquorice 
strip as the tail and the mouth. Use the black writing icing to make the 
whiskers and the pupils in the eyes.

Re: [CAKE-RECIPE] STRAWBERY CAKE SUPREME

2013-01-28 Thread John Long
Have you tried Walmart? Tube pans are some times also called, Angel Food Cake 
Pan. Thing with Walmart (and maybe Target, too) is that some pans are only 
available in a set of two. For example- I have a 16 inch pizza pan and want to 
get a 12 inch. But at Walmart, I can't get a 12 with out buying a set of two, 
which includes a 16. Some grocery stores have bake ware. If you have a Food 
Maxx there, check them. Should be in the bake section, opposite side from 
Flour.

My Notes

ONLY YOU see your private notes.

This old school recipe is a classic. This jam cake # is delicious and 
easy to make. Try making it for a potluck, a bake sale or company. 
Everyone is sure to love it.

Ingredients

* 1 1/2 cups butter or margarine
* 2 cups sugar
* 6 eggs
* 3 1/2 cups cake flour #
* 2 teaspoons baking soda
* 2 teaspoons ground allspice
* 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
* 6 tablespoons buttermilk
* 2 cups strawberry jam

Instructions

1. Cream soft butter. Add sugar slowly, beating until creamy. Add eggs
(room temperature) one at a time. Beat well after each egg. Have
flour mixture ready. Sift all-purpose flour and measure. Then sift
again with baking soda and spices.
2. Add flour mixture alternately with buttermilk. Mix to blend well.
Mixing this cake requires about 25 to 30 minutes. Last of all fold
in strawberry jam. If berries are quite large chop fine.
3. Take four square 8-inch layer cake pans # 2 inches deep and brush
bottom of pans lightly with salt free shortening or salad oil. Flour
well. Pour batter into pans and level the batter with spatula. Tap
the pans lightly against the counter to remove any air bubbles.
4. Bake in moderate oven (375 degrees F) about 30-40 minutes or until
done. Cool on cake rack 5 minutes, then turn out onto cake rack to
cool completely before icing.
5. Frost with Uncooked Caramel Icing. Uncooked Caramel Icing 1 1/2
stick butter 1/2 cup cream 2 cups dark brown sugar # (or more for
richer caramel flavor) 2 teaspoons pure vanilla 1/2 teaspoon salt
Confectioner's sugar (enough to make spreadable consistency) Melt
butter and cream together. While hot, stir in brown sugar. Cool and
stir in vanilla. Stir in salt and sifted confectioner's sugar, as
needed.

Notes

The secret to the cake is aging. Make it, then let it sit a couple of 
days before cutting it.

I found this reference -

Chocolatina mouse cake recipe?

Hello,
I have been on holidays in Greece and have had several times a chocolate 
cake shaped as a mouse that I liked a lot. My friends told me that in 
Greece this type of cake is called chocolatina and it is traditional 
to make it as a mouse. I have tried to look for the recipe online, but 
no success so far. Anyone has an idea where I can find it or maybe a 
good recipe to share? Thank you!

Additional Details

Thank you Raz, but what I am looking for is not a chocolate MOUSSE 
recipe, but a recipe of a chocolate cake traditionally shaped as a MOUSE 
:) I think it actually has some mousse in it, but not only: also some 
chocolate sponge and is it is covered with something like dark chocolate 
ganache... I hope that someone from Greece can advice how precisly these 
chocolatina mice are done :)

I will keep looking!

 I have a book of recipes of

My oven measures right and the repairman can't find anything wrong with it. 
However, the inside of things do not bake! Cakes, bread, whatever, are raw 
inside. Has anyone experienced this? I don't know how an oven can test the

Then there's something wrong with the repairman. If the oven was working 
correctly, it would be baking everything. Unless, of course, you're not 
preheating the oven soon enough, or you're not letting everything get done. I 
think, it's the repair person.

1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1 1/3 cup milk (any kind)
2 tablespoons creme de cacao

and baking powder; add alternately 
with milk to creamed mixture, 
blending just until combined

�
Pour into two greased and floured 
 9 inch layer cake pans. 

Bake at 350 f for 30 to 35 minutes
or until cake tester comes out 
clean. 

Cool 10 m inutes; remove from 
the pans. 

Sprinkle each layer with 
1 tablespoon creme de cacao; 
cool completely.

Mean while, prepare the 
Creme de Cacao filling. 

Split each layer horizontally 
into 2 layers.

Place one layer on a serving 
plate; spread with one third 
(1/3) of the filling. 

Repeat layering with remaining 
cake and filling, ending with
cake layer. 

Cover tightly; chill at least 
8 hours. 

Prepare the Chocolate Ganache Glaze; 
spoon on top of chilled cake, 
allowing the glaze to drizzle down 
the side. 

Chill. 

Garnish as desired. 


   Creme De Cacao Filling:

1 cup heavy or whipping cream
2 tablespoons crmeme de cacao
1 tablespoon Hershey's Cocoa

Beat cream, creme de cacao

Cool to luke-warm )

Glaze will be slightly 
thickened).

I like to add a little more 
vanilla, especially if it's 
Mexican Vanilla, which is 
available at some stores. 
 


My preference is to use 
a non stick baking spray, 
which contains flour. 

I have a lot of cake recipes. 

If you could tell me, what kind 
it was (chocolate, spice, carrot, 
ect), I'll check my recipes.
