Biquit floor
- Separate the egg yolks from the egg whites. Beat egg whites with 1/3 of the sugar until stiff. Add sugar gradually. Mix the egg yolks with 3 tablespoons of hot water, add the rest of the sugar and the vanilla sugar and beat for at least 5-6 minutes until a creamy mixture forms. Then carefully fold the egg white into the egg yolk mixture with a baking spoon. Mix the flour with cornstarch and baking powder, sift over and carefully fold in. Fill into the 24 baking pan, but leave some of it for the 12 pan because it also has to be filled with dough. The 12 form does not need too much of the dough because it is placed in an inclined position in the oven for baking. You can see that in my tip. Remove the small base from the oven sooner. Let both bases cool and cut each one horizontally. Baking temperature 175 C Baking time 25-30 minutes
chocolate cream
- Prepare a water bath, add a bowl and let the chocolate melt in it. Take another bowl, fill it with 600ml cream and whip the cream until it is semi-stiff. If the cream is semi-rigid and the chocolate is melted, the chocolate can be added to the cream in two stages & the coffee liqueur. Don’t forget the cream has to be whipped until it becomes stiffer. Then put the chocolate cream on the prepared cake base and cook for 3 hours. put in the fridge. After 3 hours of rest it goes very quickly. Use a knife to remove the edge of the cake from the cake.
decoration
- The preparation of the figures: is actually a matter of imagination or inspiration, but with little tricks: * the head of the reagent man is fixed inside the figure with a wooden stick. * The box is unfortunately bought and not made by yourself. In the box is a small plastic bag filled with dried and crumbled leaves, symbolic of the contents of the joint. * The sand of the beach is made from ground sugar cookies. * The water (sea) is mixed with blue and white fondant, not evenly because the sea is not evenly blue. Roll out to the size of the cake topper, not for the cake side / edge. * The edge of the cake is clad in 3 levels. One ribbon in red, one in yellow and the last one in green, the typical reagent colors and the end decorated with small fondant balls.
- Now to the question why is the cake shiny? Quite simply, I painted it with a brush and some water. Until the cake was picked up, I left it in the refrigerator, which also ensures that the brushed fondant is not sticky.
- The whole thing was not that easy a matter, but “with patience and spit” I managed it and Jill was very happy with it. The surprise was / was a success. I hope I haven’t forgotten anything and made you happy too …
