RED VELVET BIRTHDAY CAKE

In this family, the father and daughters' birthdays are consecutive ie being on 30th and 31st October and 1st November.

So normally they could celebrate their birthdays together with a party on the same day.

So besides the Project 21, I also baked a Red Velvet Cake for the other birthday girl.



The birthday girl with the parents.

I baked 2 Red Velvet cakes which were again kept in the fridge overnight to firm them to make handling easier.

Each cake is then split into 2 layers each.

Tip: place cake on an inverted cooling rack on the baking sheet. Keeping the knife level at the rim of the baking sheet, move it across the cake and you can get even layers.

Each layer is filled with cream cheese frosting.

More cream cheese frosting around the side and top of the cake.

I made the red ribbon bow using double sided tape and the ribbon is then stick around the base of the cake with piping jelly.

The top is left plain as I was using these heart-shape toppers. Simple.

I notice that this cake seems to be more popular with the younger generation.
GOD BLESS YOU AND A HAPPY BIRTHDAY
