Hello friends of the hive community, a little lost in the blog, I've been quite busy but today I bring you a beautiful semi-nude cake that we made at home to celebrate my mother's 60th birthday.
Acompáñenme y les explico el paso a paso de este bello pastel.
Join me as I explain the step by step of this beautiful cake.
Para llevar a cabo nuestra decoración como primer paso siempre es realizar el merengue, y claro tener previo un bizcocho hecho.
To carry out our decoration, the first step is always to make the meringue, and of course to have a previous sponge cake. We will use the following materials.
Materiales a utilizar. // Materials to be used.
- Batidora.
- Bol para mezclar.
- Espátula.
- Colorantes en polvo.
- Azúcar 350gr.
- 4 Huevos.
- Cucharas medidoras.
- Esencia (una cucharada).
- Manga pastelera.
- Cremor.
- Chocolate.
- Atomizador
- Blender.
- Mixing bowl.
- Spatula.
- Dyes.
- Sugar.
- 5 eggs.
- Measuring spoons.
- Essence.
- Pastry sleeve.
- Chocolate.
- Cream.
- Atomizer
In a saucepan add the 350gr of sugar, cup and a half of water and place over medium heat, separate the egg whites and the yellow ones (in this case we will only use the whites) and add them in a bowl (whites).
When the syrup makes smaller bubbles and a thread point, remove from heat and let stand for about 5 minutes, begin to beat the egg whites until stiff peaks, incorporate in a steady stream the syrup, beat for about 3 minutes, add a teaspoon of cream of tartar and a teaspoon of essence of your choice (in this case we use essence of natha) and continue beating for about 8 minutes or until the meringue makes peaks.
Once the meringue is firm we add it in our piping bag, without adding any color, we will do that later. Then we open our cake in 2 parts, with the white meringue we place a border on the edges so that the chocolate does not spill when placing the other layers, we place its supports (this is so that the cake does not move).
Once the cake has its layers of filling and its supports; with the white meringue add a line at the end of each cake and smooth it, then place a little bit on the spatula and smooth the cake again, so that it is not completely covered, but the cake and the lines of the layers of filling are visible.
Ya tenemos nuestro pastel cubierto con el merengue blanco, para dar un toque especial le colocamos unas flores de papel que ya teníamos hecha, listo amigos acá les dejo como luce el pastel por dentro. Muy sabroso y mi mama quedo encantada.
We already have our cake covered with white meringue, to give a special touch we put some paper flowers that we had already made, ready friends here I leave you how the cake looks inside. Very tasty and my mom was delighted.
