Cooking
Dough. Sugar, eggs, margarine, honey is good to RUB and put in a water bath to completely dissolve the butter and sugar (stirring constantly).
After that, remove from heat, add soda, stir and put back in a water bath, stirring occasionally, until the mixture has doubled in volume.
Remove from heat, add 2 cups of flour, stirring constantly. Let the dough to cool (you can leave 1 hour) and then add another 1 Cup of flour, already stirring by hand because the dough will be thick. After that, divide the dough into 6 pieces.
Roll out dough and bake on a greased baking sheet. Or roll out the cakes on baking paper (cut it to size shape) and bake, not lubricating. I have each cake rolled on paper size A4.
From scraps I got another cake. Total baked 7 cakes.
Cream 1. Cheese, sugar and grind the yolks or beat with a mixer until smooth (to avoid lumps). Add to the oil. Put on medium heat and heat until bubbles. Then cook for another 2-3 minutes. On the cake to put hot.
Cream 2. Cream (liquid) heat, add chocolate and stir on low heat until complete dissolution of chocolate. Add butter. As soon as the butter has melted - the cream is ready. On the cake to put hot.
Cakes sandwiching cream, alternating between "white" (cream 1) and black (cream 2).
To assemble the cake. Put in refrigerator for 3 hours.
Preparing a template of the bear, which then cut our cake. A template cut from a sheet of A4.
Begin to cut the cake according to the template. Cut off part of the top-mounted, thereby increasing the cake height. The thickness of the paws to reduce by half.
Trim is collected separately. If the cream is left, add it here (I have left). After the process of trimming cake of these residues to form a homogeneous mass (mince or knead by hand). If the mass is too thick, add additional softened butter. Get a lot similar in taste to cake "potato" (hereinafter "fries").
Rounded form bears, especially back paws. In those places where not enough cut off from the cake pieces, the form to do French fries (as made hind legs and head).
Just bear coat "the potato", to smooth with a wet hand.
Muzzle)))
Back )))
Prepare the stand. Apply in the center of the melted chocolate (it will "glue"). Free sites stand cover with foil to avoid staining.
To move the cake on the stand. Perimeter trim and remove the baking paper (with a scalpel or small scissors).
Misha is ready to cover with fondant.
The fondant out of marshmallow roll (on the starch) in a large reservoir and transfer it to the cake. To cover her entire cake and gently press to flatten, especially in places like the ears and muzzle. The fondant should stick to "potato" without bubbles and wrinkles.
Gently around the perimeter to trim off the remnants of mastic, leaving edge - 2 mm. the Remainder of the edge to tuck under the cake using a butter knife, the handle from a spoon. If the layer of mastic was small uncovered place to cover the individual pieces overlap slightly moistened the surface with water.
That mastic from drying, cover it with foil (I have another towel to weight). Apply a coat formed face. The eyes and claws of the same postmark, in black only. It is better to insert the claws at the end to not interfere with painting.
Draw the fur in all places (used to do this, conventional floss). Flat stiff brush to brush away the remnants of starch.
Paint. Cocoa powder, dilute with vodka, rum or rubbing alcohol (the higher the degree, the faster it will evaporate the liquid and dry cake). Flat brush with hard bristles to paint the bear brown. Nails and nose for Shine coating liquid honey (if not liquid diluted in vodka). Remove the film protecting the base. The cake is ready!
