Salvage Disaster


May be I was a bit too ambition, a 4" tall cake stacked up by two layers of chocolate sponge with a super thick 1/2" whipping cream in between. May be a bit of lazy and careless are intolerable totally when come to baking.
 
I used two 6" mould pan with a bit difference in design. OK, I know but there is the only two 6" mould pan I have! I need two layers of sponge and lazy to do the cutting...So you see, when stacked up the sponge, one projected a little bit more, another one just that bit smaller than the other...haiz...

When whisk up the icing, I over poured that a bit of water, oh just a bit more...it end up I couldn't do my roses, the icing is far too runny. The problem here is I have NO MORE TIME to bake another cake! Tomorrow I will be busy ferrying my son around for classes...and WT big day is on Wednesday! What to do? When he comes back he must tell me "see I told you to buy and no need to be so troublesome"
 
Oh dear! with a bit of artistic sense, this is the best I can do for you :D

  2. 有时就是这样,越是紧张那个蛋糕,它就来作怪。。。呵呵。我那天也这样,因为是要送人的,在打icing时,手一直斗,后来要停一下喝一杯水放松了再pipe过

  4. I think your cake still looks alright, no worry. Sometimes things just don't fall in place, but practice makes perfect, add oil!

  8. Hi, girl, I notice that if I don't check my blog for just 1 day, there will be lots of things to catch up with! OK, back to your cake now. I have no experience in making/stacking cake like this b4 & listening to your story to save this cake is really amazing! Your jelly hearts cheesecake has captured my attention again. I remember I did leave a message b4 but would love to go back there to study the recipe again!
