Description
Well, here is my second entry...
Again, we (my little sister and I) chose a design from one of the T-shirts I own. This time the cake was baked for the celebration of my grandma's and sister's birthdays.
For the flavor of the cake, since I saw Sweetapolita's neapolitan cake I wanted to try it, so I made it with just a few changes... After we baked the three cakes (vanilla, chocolate and strawberry) and we colored the fondan, we started decorating.
We placed all the layers of the cake except for one, we used strawberry marmalade for between the layers, we then covered it with dark chocolate ganache before we placed white fondant. For the tipi we cut the last layer of the cake in the shape of a triangle. we covered it with the ganache and then with the green-colored fondant and placed it on top of the cake.
The cake was painted with chocolate for the background and then we placed the leafes and petals that had been previously cut. The eyes of the tipi, and the legs of thelittle man were cut out of fondant.
We had fun doing it, and eating it... it was really delicious I encourage you to try this recipe :)
