craftyhunnypie Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 I had a giant cupcake mould for Xmas & wanted to try it out. So have made a giant coffee cake. The thing is, I got a bit impatient waiting for it to cool. So it's a bit erm....messy. Ahh well, it will still get ate I'm sure. Hmmm. P.S . I know it looks like a blow torch on the top of it, but it is infact just a candle. Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purple hen Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 Looks great, sure you will get plenty of help to eat it, I was tempted to get one of these moulds but I don't seem to have much luck turning cakes out of silicon moulds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craftyhunnypie Posted January 1, 2011 Author Share Posted January 1, 2011 This did come out very easy, but I did spray & wipe them with fry light. I reckon my cake is pure class. What do you say? Terrible really considering I had a Saturday job decorating cakes when younger. I guess patience is a virtue. Hmm Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craftyhunnypie Posted January 1, 2011 Author Share Posted January 1, 2011 Erm yes that's me. Have I changed a lot? I couldn't be bothered straightening hair today, went for the out of bed look ( nearly). Please note the lack of green dockers present!

chestnutmare Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 It doesn't look messy to me. It looks as though you've purposely drizzled it. 10/10 from me - I'm impressed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craftyhunnypie Posted January 1, 2011 Author Share Posted January 1, 2011 You're not looking close enough at the plate then..it's shocking! Think I'll use a wacky cake batter next time & some Betty Cockers fudgey chocolate icing. Fail proof. Hubby said my face was a picture when the icing just ran off. It was coffee butter cream even though it looks like glace icing. I am usually a decent cook, but was impatient with this. If I can make it to Omletstock 4, I promise to bring a much better one.

craftyhunnypie Posted January 3, 2011 Author Share Posted January 3, 2011 It doesn't taste too great - as it needed more buttercream in the cake rather than on the the plate. Ha ha! I'll try chocolate next time ( my favourite) & maybe decorate with Smarties, which I also love. I'm a devil for cooking stuff & bakeware. Wonder what other shape tins or moulds I could get?
