Pink Cake
I was under strict instructions to make a pink cake by my daughter. More often than not I find that she is getting what she wants and when my girl wants pink cake well, she gets pink cake. We freestyled the recipe, threw caution to the wind, this time no ratios.
We took 4 eggs and whipped to 4x their volume with 350g sugar and then we emulsified 100ml vegetable oil into the sweet eggs.
Pureed 200mls natural yogurt with 100g strawberries and kept it aside. Sieved around 450g SR flour onto the egg.
Folded in the yogurt until everything just combined. The batter found it's way into a greased tin, in our oven, around 170c for 45min ish.
After a quick check on how to make royal icing
2 egg whites, 300g icing sugar a few drops of red.
Mixed them all up then applied it to the rested, room temp cake. Finally it was adorned with sugar coated almonds and strawberries.
Pink, definitely pink.
