3D Cake

Filed under: Menu — claudy @ 12:35 am

Ingredients are cheap, but a lot of manual labor, especially the cat whiskers. But I think I have done the cake nicely. After few hours work on this cake, the fist comment on the cake from Spawn was: "The green cream is so ugly"!! Really hateful.
 

Using marshmallow taste nicer, but it gets dry easily while I was making the figures. I will probably try marzipan once or another alternative.

 

Below are the color fondants that I prepared upfront.

Lunch Box for Bean

Seems Bean likes the lunch box a lot. I also like it very much. I kept eating during the making process.

 

My first fondant cake

My first attempt of baking fondant cake

It tastes nicer than marzipanned but it is super super sweet, even Spawn couldn’t bear it.

Ingredients for the fondant:
250g marshmallow
2 table spoons of water
1 table spoon of shortening
500g icing sugar
Food coloring colors
Cake writing pen
 

1. Firstly add 250gr marshmallow + 2 tsp water + 1 tsp shortening in a bowl and place it in the microwave for 1 minute.
2. Then stir it.
3. Dust your table with icing sugar and continuously add icing sugar and stir the fondant until it is smooth.

4. For color, you need to add some food color into the fondant.

 

Here is the food color

This looks like a lipgloss, but it is well a Cake writing pen

Here is my final result. What do you think he?

Menu: Tilapia with Choi Sum, Snow Pea and Cooked Potatoes

Filed under: Menu — claudy @ 11:23 pm

Spawn prefers Western food over Chinese foods. So as a compromise, I often prefer something fusion-like.

Choi Sum grown with heart. I was lucky to receive some.
