Step 1: Bake the Sponge Cake

Preheat the oven to 180°C (convection oven 160°C) and grease the baking pan with baking spray. Prepare 150 grams of FunCakes Mix for Sponge Cake as indicated on the package. Spread the batter in the baking pan and bake the sponge cake for about 30-35 minutes until done. Immediately turn it out onto a cooling rack after baking and let it cool thoroughly.

Step 2: Prepare the Enchanted Cream®

Prepare 225 grams of FunCakes Enchanted Cream® Mix as indicated on the package. Divide the cream into three portions. Color one portion baby pink, one portion baby blue using FunCakes food coloring, and leave one portion white.

Step 3: Slice and Fill the Cake

Slice the sponge cake into 2 layers using a cake leveler, then fill and cover with a thin layer of cream. Chill in the refrigerator for half an hour. Afterward, smoothly cover with the baby pink Enchanted Cream® using a smoother.

Step 4: Decorate the Cake

Fill a piping bag with the baby blue cream using tip #4B, another piping bag with the white cream using tip #021, and a third piping bag with the remaining baby pink cream using tip #150.

 

Pipe a border with the pink cream around the cake first. Then, trim the print to fit and place it on the cake. Pipe a border on the print with the blue cream. Trim the two prints to fit and place them on the border. Finally, pipe another border on the print with the white cream. Decorate with sugar decorations and sprinkles to complete the cake.

Step 5: Burn away the edible paper by igniting a starting point in the middle of the paper.
