Cake
Bake both cakes according to the instructions on the package of the FunCakes mix for sponge cake. Let the cakes cool down on a cooling grid.
Make the bavaroise, according to the instructions on the package, with 250 ml of whipped cream and let it rest in the refrigerator. Mix the other 250 ml with a bit of sugar and strengthener.
Mix the icing sugar on high speed with the butter until a white cream. Fill a decorating bag with tip 12 with the cream. Place the largest cake on a cake board and cut in 3 layers. Make a border with the cream on the first cake layer and fill with the bavaroise. Place the second layer on top, make a border and fill with the whipped cream. Place the final layer of cake on top and cover the cake with a layer of the cream. Do the same with the small cake. Place the cakes in the refrigerator until you need them again.
Knead 500 gram of fondant and color bright blue (teal icing color). Roll out 300 grams and cover the largest cake, use the other 200 gram for the small cake. Store the cakes in the refrigerator Color 100 gram fondant green and cut out different kind of leafs. Take the cakes from the refrigerator. Cut 3 pieces from the dowels, one the same height as the cake and two 1 cm higher. Place the dowels in the largest cake and place the small cake on top. Use a bit of edible glue to decorate the cake with the leafs. Finally place Hawaiian flowers on the cake.
