I have tried out this is the only one where the cake is moist and not too dense. I failed miserably few times but this cake looks easy but it is one of the hardest, I have made. I haven’t made much and this is the first time I am decorating.
You need to follow step by step especially beginner.
Ingredients:
- 4 eggs room temperature (important)
- 40 gr unsalted butter and milk (microwave – use warm not hot)
- 50 gr honey (I forgot this but it tastes good too, honey is good to keep it moisture)
- 95 gr sugar
- Strawberry – keep 4-5 whole and other slice them into 2-3
- 100 gr cake flour – sift at least twice
- 300-500 ml heavy cream
- a cup sugar – 75 gr
- a teaspoon of vanilla essence
- baking pan 20 cm – line bottom and side
How to make:
- put the microwave 180 degree (320 F)
- put your mixture of sugar and egg bowl on top of hot water (easier to melt sugar)
- mix it until it is volumised and pale (5-8 mins) on high speed
- draw signs to see if the mixture disappeared quickly or not – it should be there for a bit for few seconds
- add honey
- mix on low speed for 2-3 mins – smaller bubbles
- put cake flour in and use a spatula by hand and fold about 30-40 times
- add the combo mixture of milk and butter
- fold 40-50 times
- pour the mixture on your baking pan / mould
- drop 2-3 times to remove big bubbles
- bake 30 mins
- once it is done, use toothpick to check if the inside is cooked
- drop 2 times to prevent shrinking
whipping cream
- add sugar and cream together on the whipping bowl and put on top of ice water to keep cream in place not melting
- whip until stiff peak
Decorating:
- cut the cake into two-three
- put cream on top of each layers and add strawberry
- use whipping cream and decorate the way you want.
Taste time!
