Miffy Chocolate Cake Topper

Instructions

  1. Place the template onto a cutting board and cover it with a sheet of acetate.
  2. Melt the chocolate in a heat proof bowl on top of a saucepan with a small layer of water in it, on medium heat. Heat each colour of chocolate separately until it has melted completely.
  3. Using a toothpick or a piping bag, trace and fill in the design with the right chocolate colours.
  4. When filling in the two, add the sprinkles onto the chocolate before it sets.
  5. Refrigerate in between each of each colour until set, about 20 minutes.
  6. Brush the yellow chocolate with gold food colouring powder.
  7. Whip up the whipping cream with vanilla extract to stiff peaks.
  8. Place a small amount of whipping cream on the cake board (25 cm), then one slice of cake.
  9. Brush the cake with simple syrup.
  10. Cover with whipped cream.
  11. Add the other two layers of cake, repeating steps 9 and 11 again.
  12. Cover the entire cake in whipped cream.
  13. Cover the sides in nonpareil sprinkles.
  14. Stick the chocolates into the top of the cake.

Notes

*Baked in a brownie pan (22,5 cm × 22,5 cm × 5 cm), one batch at a time.
**Using chocolate food colouring you can choose to colour white chocolate yourself, but these can also be replaced with candy melts in the right colours.
