Cake "March 8"

Description

This cake I made as a gift to his mother on March 8. She loves flowers, pink and honey. All this is combined in honey cake with dried fruit. I hope I was able to create a little spring joy!)

Ingredients

Chicken egg

3 piece
Honey
Flour

400 g
Soda

0.5 tsp
Vanilla sugar

15 g
Dried apricots

100 g
Prunes

100 g
Butter

400 g
Almonds

2 g
Mastic

400 g
Alcohol

100 ml

Cooking

Beat the eggs, vanilla sugar and honey until bubbles.

Make a water bath. A pot of honey-egg mixture to put in the bath so that it does not touch the water. Cover, stirring occasionally. Warm up for about 7-10 minutes, the mixture color changes to Golden.

Add the flour and knead a tight dough.

To put it into the form. I have ring stands at 16cm. Using the spatula make the dough semi-circular top and send in a preheated 180 degree oven for 25-30 minutes.

Cake cool and cut into 4 parts.

Soak cakes with alcohol. Honey cake is always dry, therefore, the more alcohol, the more tender the dough will be. I had Riga black currant balsam - perfect for this test.

For the cream whip the butter with the honey and almond flavoring. Finely chop the dried apricots and prunes. If apricots dry, then pre-soak it before cooking.

Collect our cake - we put the cream on the cake, on top, spread the dried fruit, so cook each cake. Close the top cover cake and spread evenly over it the remaining cream on top which we later put the mastic. Sent the cake in the fridge to rest.

My mom loves flowers, I must confess that at the cottage we have planted all of them. They bloom from early spring to late autumn, so I wanted to make flower cake. We will need white fondant, it is necessary to roll out and with a stencil or cookie cutters to cut out flowers.

Any circular device will wognum leaves inside and leave to rest.

Dissolve pink food coloring and with a brush, will do a few pink flowers.

Cores to apply a couple of drops of yellow dye to the white fondant, mix yellow mass and SkyTeam small balls. Attach them to the center of the flowers with water.

Pink Polish I did the same as yellow dripped a few drops of red dye to a white base and made a sauce the color that I like - tender. But you can use a ready-made pink fondant. Roll it with stock on the table and put on top of the cake. Surplus cut with a pizza knife or any sharp knife.

Netting "under the basket" very easy to do - cut into 2 long strips, and it's a lot of short and braid them according to the principle of alternation - one top, other bottom. They are fixed to each other and to the cake with water. When you've fixed the basket, gently spread the flowers on the cake, our glue is water. We are all set.
