September 4, 2010: Penguini Celebration Cake

has a proud record of decorative cakes but I'm a niggling less inclined that means - but piping cheese into zucchini flowers has previously sent me over the border together with I've been a messy icing slatherer e'er since. (And though K's done this before, her accounts of the procedure conduct maintain revealed much stress along the way.)  We were both thrilled to discover that it's a much to a greater extent than enjoyable together with less fraught procedure when nosotros embark on it together!

The chocolate cake recipe nosotros used wasn't the tastiest roughly thus I won't transcribe it here.  It did conduct maintain the asset, though, of a sturdy texture that supported our icing experiments well.  K showed me that the best means to choke a line drawing onto a cake is to depict or describe it onto baking paper, together with thus purpose a toothpick to punch holes through the baking newspaper onto the cake.  Joining the dots alongside a dark icing writing subway takes a steady mitt but is a heck of a lot easier than free-stylin'!

K whipped together a vegan buttercream inwards the meantime (just using icing sugar, Nuttelex together with a smidge of vanilla) together with nosotros started on the icing-between-the-lines challenge.  There was a niggling fussing together with scraping together with repeating hither but nosotros eventually roughshod into an agreeable blueprint using a apartment pipage caput together with a teaspoon to flatten it out further.  We used melted night chocolate together with teaspoons for the night penguin sections; if yous conduct maintain it gently plenty the dark icing stops it from running out everywhere.  We whipped pomegranate molasses together with cherry nutrient colouring into the remaining icing to fill upwards out the background - it had a great sweet-sour flavor to contrast alongside the darker cake.

We were non the almost efficient decorators inwards the globe (we chopped together with changed techniques together with equipment together with fifty-fifty had a pair last-minute trips to the shops) together with we're a long means from mastering the decorative arts.  But K together with I were both proud of what we'd made - Bec & Craig loved it! - together with the upsets nosotros avoided past times working on it together.
