Cooking process
Despite the fact that the cake “Ladybug” is prepared very easily and all the ingredients are simple and affordable, the cake turns out to be very tasty, tender and juicy. After a little work on the decoration, we get a bright and beautiful picture. Such cake will decorate any children’s holiday.
Start working with cooking a biscuit according to a classic recipe. It can be baked the day before the desired event. And since the body of the ladybug is hemispherical, a biscuit is needed. Therefore, you need to pick the right shape, so that in the future there was less trouble in collecting the cake.
Prepare the necessary ingredients.
The cooled biscuit cut into three cakes. Each of them to soak with apricot juice.
Prepare the ingredients for the custard.
Prepare the custard: combine the egg yolks, sugar with vanillin, flour and milk. Mix thoroughly with a mixer. There should be no lumps, the mass should be uniform. Pour the mass into the saucepan and on low heat, stirring all the time, bring to a density. If you get lumps – do not worry – rub through a fine sieve.
Ready to hot cream abundantly lubricate the cakes. Between the cakes put the sliced slices of banana and marshmallow.
Do not grease the top of the cake.
Prepare the protein custard. To do this, you need to combine the sugar with water and cook the syrup. After boiling reduce the fire to a minimum and not touch. Boil for 7-8 minutes. To check whether the syrup is ready, you need to pour a little into cold water, and if rolled into a ball – ready.
While the syrup is being prepared, it is necessary to whip the proteins in a thick foam at a high speed of the mixer, and then, without turning off, pour in the hot syrup. Continue to beat for 7-8 minutes, until completely cooled. For the speed of preparation of the cream, you can put a bowl of cream in a basin of ice.
When the cream is ready, apply a thin layer on the surface of the cake.
With skewers, draw a contour of the picture: the head, the circles, the dividing line – the wings.
The cream is divided into two parts: one to paint in black, and the second – to red. Fill the confectionery syringe with a cream of black color and paint all the black parts.
Then – red. To do this, any nozzle is suitable: a star, a round one, a flower, a sphere … The main thing is to plant in small portions and close to each other so that the surface of the cake is not visible.
It remains to attach eyes.
I have special beautiful eyes – we put them in their place. You can make eyes from mastic or chocolate.
The cake “Ladybird” is ready. Bon Appetit.
Cook with love.
