Step 1: Bake the biscuits
Preheat the oven to 180°C (fan oven 160°C) and grease the cake pans with FunCakes Bake Release Spray.
Prepare 330 g FunCakes Biscuit Deluxe Mix according to the instructions on the packaging and divide the batter among three cake pans. Bake the biscuits for about 35 minutes until golden and cooked through. Allow the biscuits to cool completely on a cooling rack immediately after baking.
Step 2: Prepare the buttercream
Make 200 g FunCakes Buttercream Mix according to the instructions on the packaging and flavor it with your choice of FunCakes Flavor Paste.
Step 3: Slice and fill the layers
Using a cake saw, slice each biscuit layer twice and fill the layers with buttercream. Stack the two 15 cm cakes on top of each other with a matching cake board in between.
Step 4: Apply a crumb coat
Spread a thin layer of buttercream around both cakes and let it set in the fridge for one hour.
Step 5: Cover with Electric Yellow fondant
Knead the FunCakes Electric Yellow Rolled Fondant until smooth and roll it out to approximately 2–3 mm thick. Cover the cakes with the fondant. Stack the cakes using trimmed cake boards and some dowels cut to size.
Step 6: Prepare the marbled decoration
Knead the FunCakes Bella Blue and Midnight Blue Rolled Fondant until smooth and lightly mix for a marbled effect. Be careful not to over-knead, or the color will turn solid blue.
Step 7: Cut out the stars
Roll the marbled fondant to approximately 1–2 mm thick and cut out circles that fit the smallest star from the cutter set. Then cut the stars from the circles and leave them to air dry for one hour.
Step 8: Attach the decoration
Attach the circles with the cut-out stars in straight lines to the cake using FunCakes Edible Glue.
