  • 60 ml vegetable oil
  • 100 ml water
  • 150 g unsalted butter
  • 125 ml water

Supplies

  • FunCakes Decorating Bags 41 cm pk/10
  • FunCakes Bento Cake Box White 15x15 cm pk/10

Step 1: Bake the Red Velvet

Preheat the oven to 175°C (convection oven 160°C). Process the ingredients at room temperature. Prepare 250 grams of FunCakes Mix for Red Velvet as indicated on the package. Grease the baking tin with baking spray and place the batter in it. Bake the red velvet cake for 30-35 minutes until done. After baking, turn it out onto a cooling rack and let it cool well.

Step 2: Make the buttercream

Prepare 125 grams of FunCakes Mix for Buttercream as indicated on the package.

Step 3: Fill and frost

Slice the cake in half and fill and frost it with the buttercream. Let the red velvet cake cool in the refrigerator for half an hour so that the crumb coat becomes firm.

Step 4: Decorate the cake

Color 1/2 of the buttercream red, 1/4 yellow, and 1/4 pink. Then frost the cake with the red buttercream. Place the yellow and pink buttercream separately in a piping bag with tip #003. Use the pink buttercream to make a heart on the top and smooth it with a spatula. Pipe hearts, a sun, and the "You’re the best" onto the bento cake with the yellow buttercream.

Step 5: Give away this delicious Bento Cake as a gift!"
