Mickey Mouse Birthday Cake

My son 3rd birthday, i decided to bake a Mickey mouse birthday cake for him as he loves Mickey so much!! Sure he was, he enjoyed the cake and wanted to blow the candle over and over again.


Ingredients:
4 eggs
1/2 cup cake flour + 1 teaspoon of tartar cream
1/2 cup sugar
2-3 drops of vanilla extract
Mickey mouse cake mold
Betty crocker white and chocolate frosting
Strawberry jam

Methods:
Separate the egg white and egg yolks. Use a stand mixer, beat the egg white and sugar at high speed until it looked like foam and fluffy. Transfer to another bowl.(A)

Beat the egg yolks at lower speed, when it looks yellownish and a bit foamy, add in cake flour and vanilla extract. Combine with (A) and mix them gently.

Pour the batter into the mickey mouse mold. Bake 2 layers so you can layers up the cake. Bake at 350 C for 20 minutes or until the toothpick came out clean( ovens may vary).

Cool the cake. Spread one layer with jam/ frosting of your choice ( i used strawberry jam) and top it with another layer. Carefully frost the entire cake with the white and chocolate frosting. Then you can draw out mickey's face using decorating tip.

If you prefer cool cake, put it into refrigerator before serving.

Note: This cake is not as big as uou see, if you want to make a bigger cake, please double the ingredients.
