Cakes from mastic with their own hands with turn-based photos( for boys and girls)
Mastic cakes are very beautiful to look at, and very tasty. But not everyone is ready to take up such a cake because of its complexity. I hasten to please you, these sweets are not as complicated as they seem. In this master class you will see how to make cakes of mastic with your own hands for children using the example of a mushroom house( photo below).
What to take as a basis?
The first thing we need is the foundation. Since the design is not made of light, the main requirement for a cake is its density.
For the basis, almond cake with plum jam was prepared. I advise you to smear the top of the cake with a thin layer of butter.
This wizard class will be very useful for beginners, since after reading this article it will be easier for them to work with mastic. Also you will learn how to tighten and how to cover the cake correctly.
Materials:
- Sharp knife.
- Any round object.
- Mastic.
- Shapes.
Work progress:
Cake is divided into two parts, one part should be larger than the other.
From the bottom, cutting off excess, we make a leg with a sharp knife.
Most of the cake will go to the mushroom's head. For help, you can take a round object and cut a circle.
The mastic is rolled into a thin layer of less than 0.5 cm, we cut out the grass with the help of molds. If the cake turned out to be uneven or the mastic is made of condensed milk, the layer will be more than 0.5 cm.
Apply the mastic to the mushroom foot, as soon as the mastic is laid, we trim the foot so that there are no "bubbles".If there is an unnecessary mastic left, cut it with a knife.
Let's get to the hat. With the help of food coloring we color the mastic in the color of the cap of any mushroom you have chosen. Put mastic on the hat, but do not cut the mastic as a leg, and bend it, it is important to keep the mastic with a cap on the palm so that there are no dents.
Then put the hat on the foot. If the cap looks uneven, you can shape it with the back of the palm.
It remains to decorate the cake: the simplest is to cut the circles from the remaining mastic. Also a simple decoration will be a caterpillar, from a mastic of green color we make balls of different shapes and build them into a caterpillar.
We pass to the doors, we roll the mastic thinner for the door and the window. We cut out the door with a knife and an ordinary spoon. Window cone for baking wafer tubules.
After selling the mastic with the back side of the knife, we make a "log" for the door.
In the end, the cake turned out to be not only delicious, but also beautiful.
If you want to make a bright birthday cake for a girl, then you can decorate it a little differently, for this you will need to make a doll figure, flowers and all sorts of girlish attributes.
