Cooking for dummies part 3: Gayer Cake

Sunday, March 09, 2008

I promised myself I wouldn't do anymore Cooking for dummies for a while as it seems every other post is about this. However there are special circumstances beyond my control. It seems I have inadvertently triggered the magic sentence making me the *ahem* proud *coughs* winner *coughs* of the Freakin' Green Elf Shorts from Tatas. This feat should be celebrated in some way, and since I'm fresh out of alcohol I decided to make a gayer cake. So here goes..

1. Ingredients

3 Chocolate cake layers
1 bag of cake custard powder
½ liter of milk
½ liter of cream
Raspberry jam as the strawberry topping wasn't all that fabulous
Red fruit colouring
Green and red sugar cherries
Red cake decoration syrup
Silver sugar balls

Step 1 - make cake custard

1. Put ½ liter of milk in a bowl with cake custard powder

2. Stir for 4 minutes

3. Put in fridge for 15 minutes

Step 2 - make whipped cream

1. Take half of the cream and put it in one bowl and add a bit of fruit colouring

2. Stir until you've got whipped cream

3. Make whipped cream out of the rest of the cream but this time don't add fruit colouring

4. The 15 minutes are almost up so take the custard out of the fridge and stir it for 1 minute

Step 3 - make cake

1. Put 1 chocolate cake layer on a plate or special cake tray

2. Put half of the custard on the cake and apply half of the white whipped cream on top

3. Put raspberry jam on top of whipped cream

4. Put layer of chocolate cake on top and apply a little pressure

5. Repeat step 2

6. Put top layer of chocolate cake on top and apply pressure

7. Neatly apply pink whipped cream on top in a thin layer

8. Apply pink whipped cream around the sides to make it look fabulous

9. Decorate cake with sugar cherries, silver sugar balls and red cake syrup for that extra gay look and voilá

ONE FABULOUS GAYER CAKE with the green sugar cherries marking the winning of the Freakin' Green Elf Short Competiton.

Bon appetit

	Tatas March 11, 2008 08:38 PM PDT put your face in it MJ


	CyberPete March 11, 2008 06:28 PM PDT Tatas: I'm sure you are right, but for some reason I don't care to know Sparkly Tim: Us more than you I bet. T-Birdy: I should have taken a picture of that. Shoot. I have a feeling the stuff in the freezer won't look as yummy though. Dinah: That would be awesome. Why are there no kind souls like that?!? T-Birdy: Look at comment to Dinah. Tatas: Could be fun to smash your face into the cake. I could never do that though. I don't know why.


	Tatas March 11, 2008 05:56 PM PDT MJ: you put your face in it.


	T-Bird March 11, 2008 10:09 AM PDT That'd be so awesome, Dinah! Like a random act of kindness fairy - dropping off eats for people who are in need. Either that or stalkers who know what we are short on in the pantry. Either would be ace.


	Dinah March 11, 2008 07:30 AM PDT Now I have a craving for cake AND bacardi. Of which I have neither in my house. I wish someone would just show up at my house and be like, "here! This is for you!" and then run off again so I could enjoy my rum and cake.


	T-Bird March 10, 2008 11:08 PM PDT It would be my pleasure to visit back! A slice of cake would be lovely too... I was wondering what it looked like in the cross sectiony-part. Creamy and jammy. Mmmmm. Thanks, sugar balls.


	Tim March 10, 2008 10:52 PM PDT Yeah, sorry about that!


	Name March 10, 2008 10:41 PM PDT MJ: You just put your face into it. I'm sure your good at that (putting your face into something sweet)


	CyberPete March 10, 2008 09:34 PM PDT IDV: I can, it would be fun to see what you'd do to them next. It was bacardi limon and sprite. Very little sprite and much bacardi. KAZ: Why thank you deary! We should get into business and make a glass that is always filled with vodka. KAZ: Glad you cleared that up as we wouldn't want you being confused with Tatas (the tramp)


	Kaz March 10, 2008 09:08 PM PDT Name = KAZ


	Name March 10, 2008 09:06 PM PDT Congratulations Pete daahling on the Elf shorts win and the wondrous cake. Now for God's sake get some vodka in that bloody glass.


	IDV March 10, 2008 08:37 PM PDT Oog! I hope I don't win them again. Imagine the palaver... Anyway, I came back because I forgot to ask: What were you drinking (very quickly)? That glass in picture 2 emptied considerably by picture 3 and was completely empty by 6! Neat gin?


	CyberPete March 10, 2008 07:39 PM PDT Tatas: That's a little more information than I bargained for. Thanks for scaring Sparkly Tim: Wow you are really adamant about the whole straight thing. How sad for us. IDV: that's what I was going for. The gayest cake, not the shorts. I didn't expect to win the shorts at all. Lucky you, well you might win them again... MJ: sometimes it's a good thing not leaving your name. Your comment may get a better reception.


	MJ March 10, 2008 04:49 PM PDT Dear "Nameless": Consider giving yourself a name here. Like perhaps, oh I don't know... Tatas? Unless that's somebody else who Connie's munching on?


	IDV March 10, 2008 03:57 PM PDT That is one of the gayest cakes I have ever seen! Well done! And a big YAY! for winning those diabolical 'Shorts. * considers renaming balls Autumn Reeser and Rachel Bilson *


	Tim March 10, 2008 12:06 AM PDT Um, no. He could call his balls 'blank cheques' and I still wouldn't go near them.


	Name March 9, 2008 11:57 PM PDT I don't need cake to sit on. I have plenty of sweetness for Connie to munch on.


	CyberPete March 9, 2008 11:18 PM PDT Bingowings: Why thank you. I tried my best. I will need a list from you of all the stains you left on them. The same goes for everyone who wore them. Would it be wise to get hepatitis shots etc.


	CyberPete March 9, 2008 11:16 PM PDT Sparkly Tim: Well it's no secret that I'm not overly excited about winning them. We'll see. Maybe you'll get them next. I'm not entirely sure, that balls and tits are the same thing. Not even kind of. If we called IDVs balls tits would you like them more? Tatas: You really did me in there. There will be retribution, teeheee. T-Birdy: It does taste good. A bit heavy but it is good. I put some in the freezer so feel free to pop on over for a slice whenever.. Oh and welcome. please stick around


	eroswings March 9, 2008 11:01 PM PDT Congratulations, CP! I see you managed to recreate the colors of the Shorts on your delicious looking cake!


	T-Bird March 9, 2008 10:43 PM PDT That looks like one absolutely delicious cake! Now I am hungry for cakey goodness...


	Name March 9, 2008 10:27 PM PDT Watch this space. Umm......... Freaking Green Elf Shorts


	Tim March 9, 2008 10:03 PM PDT Sugar tits, sugar balls - it's all the same thing. Kind of. Anyway! Congrats on winning the shorts … or maybe that should be commiserations?


	CyberPete March 9, 2008 09:42 PM PDT Hence - gayer cake not layer cake I thought he'd shout someting anti semetic


	Tim March 9, 2008 09:08 PM PDT That's very … pink! I'm making no comment whatsoever about silver sugar balls. Aside from the fact it sounds like something Mel Gibson might shout while drunk.


	CyberPete March 9, 2008 08:15 PM PDT You could do that MJ, as long as you are not wearing the shorts - so Tatas should be adviced not sitting on the cake


	MJ March 9, 2008 08:09 PM PDT Apply pressure with what? Do I sit on it?
