To say it was easy - it means to lie))) Although looking at MK seemed much easier. In order to make this cake, I had to read a minimum of 4 MK, in the end, I managed. Decided to post my detailed MK, maybe someone will be useful to my opinion as a beginner. I will be glad if You rate my first experience!!!

Cooking
Bake sponge cake with condensed milk. With a mixer beat the eggs and oil. Then add sugar and stir.
Then add the condensed milk, soda (slaked vinegar) and flour. All mix thoroughly (you can use a mixer) divide the dough into 4 pieces and two of them add cocoa powder. Bake each piece for 15-20 minutes at 180 degrees. Allow to cool and cut each biscuit in half. In the end we get 8 cakes (4 white and 4 brown).
Let's get to the cream biscuit. Sour cream combine the sugar, vanilla and beat thoroughly with a mixer. Before you stack the cake, we need to prepare the surface for our cake, as the manufacturing process will be easily soiled, and we want more beautiful cloth to put under the bottom. Cortico to lay out a napkin. Cut a plastic bag into 4 pieces and arrange like the picture. Try to put so that under the biscuit left a little more, otherwise it will come out. Then put sponge cake and the fluff sour cream, cream do not regret, so better soaked cake. If in the process of putting some of the biscuits You edge is not uniform, boldly cut. From the top of the cake I cut around 1 inch, put the trimmed cake on top and a thin part, thereby making a recess in the middle for the eggs. Trim the biscuits can be mixed with a small amount of sour cream and spread on top around the edges. The top layer of cake to coat. We remove our cake in the fridge and allow to soak several hours, preferably in the evening, biscuits to bake, soak and leave in the fridge overnight.
Now I will describe how to do caviar "false" to you throughout the process of making the cake, doing such a procedure. You need to put in the freezer 3 cups of vegetable oil and leave there for at least an hour and a half (depending on the temperature of Your freezer). Vegetable oil should turn white and thicken, but not completely freeze. I twice did not zadergala butter and eggs I have melted, so be sure to soak time. For spawning will prepare the following items (in addition to the above ingredients): small pot (which will drain the oil), a sieve, a syringe (I used 20 CC, without needle) and a piece of gauze (for drying eggs). Let's get started. Pour in a Cup juice (half of 100g), pour into it the gelatine, stir and allow to swell for 10 minutes. When gelatin swells, put our Cup on a water bath and heat (stirring) until completely dissolved gelatin. Remove from heat and add the remaining juice (100g). So I recommend you to add red dye, because the first eggs, I turned pale. Then I added 2 drops of liquid dye and eggs became beautiful colors. Give our gelatin to thicken slightly. Take out the chilled butter from the freezer and then very quickly all you need to do, otherwise the caviar will not work, melted (oil cools fast). In syringe dial jelly (enough 15кубиков) and drip into the beaker with the oil. At one point they start to drip (quickly, so they are connected) at least 4 drops, so that the eggs turned out larger. Our circles slowly sink to the bottom of the Cup and harden. When will the jelly in the syringe, pour the butter with the eggs on a sieve (in pan). When the oil is merged under cold water washes our eggs and spread on a cheesecloth for a little while (otherwise the eggs will dry up) for drying. Oil to pour into the glass again and put back in the freezer to solidify. We put 3 cups to speed up the process. I don't get, in turn. The resulting eggs folded into a container and refrigerate.
Next, prepare the cream under mastic. Whites mix with sugar, salt and put in a water bath (stirring constantly) until the sugar is dissolved, then chill. While whites are cooling, whip the butter for 5 minutes. When our proteins has cooled, whisk them to the full peaks (the color will be white), the whisking will take about 10 minutes. Then, continuing to whisk the egg whites, start adding the oil. Once all the oil smeshaem, beat for another 5 minutes. Our cream under mastic ready.
Now coat our cake cream under mastic. The cream is applied to the cake evenly, giving bochonochnuyu look. I spoon on top of the dining room was flattened recess. Next you need to smooth the surface. For this capacity (narrow) pour the boiling water in there, drop the knife (if there is a special spatula - use it) and in small steps bottom-up cream to a knife, thus the surface becomes smooth. It is important that the knife was always hot, this constantly dipping it in boiling water and do not wipe, just looked like water and continue to align. If the boiling water has time to cool, change the water. Cake put in the refrigerator for two hours to harden cream.
Prepare the milk paste. Here I was taken by surprise. Everywhere it was stated the product ratio of 1:1:1. Since I first made fondant, I didn't know what it should be for consistency. Long I kneaded until I realized that the mastic is not so. Began to study globally the mastic and found the perfect balance. Freaked out and threw what he did. Started a new batch already I have mentioned ingredients and it worked. You need to sift (optional) the powdered sugar and milk mixture. Combine them, add the condensed milk, lemon juice and knead. Condensed milk entered carefully, it is possible to overdo it. Better add a spoonful and stir. As soon as you see that the mass is ready for the kneading (I went to 3.5 tbsp), put on a starch dusted surface and knead well until thick. The paste may stick slightly. Paste dusted with starch, put in a bag and removed an hour in the refrigerator. After hours, our fondant is ready to use. Cut a piece of mastic, add the dye (I added 3 drops of liquid coloring) and roll out to a rectangle approximately 2mm (keep from sticking to the surface). To simulate wood, the surface of the mastic must be scratched with a toothpick, but gently, so as mastic not to scratch through. Next, cut into strips (width 3-4cm and the length measure on your cake, you need to take a little more than the height of the cake) and placed each strip on cake in a circle. I ironed the towel surface to the mastic formed tight, but not much press. Next, cut a circle around the diameter of our deepening and stand on the top of the cake. Make a spoon for caviar (I forgot to photograph it, sorry). It's very simple. Regular spoon (desired size) dusted with starch and put it on the paste, cutting hands on the edges. I did brown-red, combining parts water. A spoon to put in the fridge to solidify.
Now for the details. I made the brown rim (bottom taped) and red (upper). All parts are glued with water. Just wet and apply it on the cake. To simulate on the rim of the cogs we take an ordinary straw and lightly presses. Then subdiskoj in the middle of the circle to make a rim. You can also make a sign on the cake and write on it anything you like. As I did for my husband's birthday, I cut out two red heart and wrote protein-butter cream under the fondant using a cooking syringe. Next, coat the cake with vegetable oil with a brush too wide (normal to the drawing), thereby giving gloss our barrel and removing the excess powdered sugar and starch. You can smear vodka with dye, but then I was afraid. Vegetable oil without smell, taste is not affected. The top (where the eggs) is not obmazyvat oil, otherwise the eggs will float. Once slathered oil cake, spread on top of our the eggs and place on top of the spoon, slightly prisypaya caviar.
