24 Days of Sparkle Girl – Snowman Cake

This is a cute cake for the whole family!

Ingredients:

  • 125g Unsalted Butter
  • 125g Caster Sugar
  • 125g Self-Raising Flour
  • 2 Medium Eggs
  • Vanilla Essence
  • White Fondant Icing
  • Orange Fondant Icing
  • Blue Fondant Icing
  • Black Fondant Icing
  • 1tsp Baking Powder

Method:

  • Heat the oven to 180C and line the baking tin with baking parchment and butter
  • Beat the sugar and the eggs together until they look a bit like buttercream
  • Whisk the eggs together until they have lots of bubbles
  • Sieve the flour – optional
  • Gradually – while mixing the butter and sugar a bit more – add in the flour and the eggs
  • While doing this add in 1tsp of Baking Powder and a few drops of Vanilla Essence
  • Bake in  the oven for 20-30 mins – or until a knife comes out of the mixture/cake clean

Decoration:

  • Roll out the white fondant icing until it is roughly a 1cm thick, cover the entire cake in this (you may need to cut excess icing off)
  • Roll out the blue fondant icing, and cut a long strip of it out
  • Cut a triangle out of the blue icing for the hat, put this on the top of the cake – using the picture below to copy from:
  •  
  • On the strip of blue icing leftover, put small marks vertically across it copy the picture above if you need to
  • Roll out some orange icing into a sausage-like shape, press the top of the icing gently to create a nose and this time put small line marks horizontally across it
  • Roll out a little bit of the black icing into little flat balls and place them where they are in the picture above

Now enjoy the cake! 🙂
