Hi food buddies here in hive!
Today we are celebrating Father's Day 2021 and it is also my husband's birthday. Instead of making two cakes, I made 2 flavors and 2 designs in one whole cake.
Here's what we need:
•1 8x2 Chocolate Chiffon Cake, cut in half
•1 8x2 Coffee Chiffon Cake
•450mL Whipping Cream, whip until smooth and stable
•Coffee Mix (1 teaspoon Coffee +1/2 Tablespoon Water)
• 1/4 Cup Crushed Oreo
•7 pcs Half Oreo Cookie Sandwiches for toppings
• Fondant Details (#1 DAD, heart-shapes fondant and mug handle)
•50g Dark Chocolate, melted for choco drip
•12" Round Cake Board
•Happy birthday acrylic topper
•6B Piping Tip
•2 Piping Bag
•Turn Table
•Spatula
Let's get started!
Prepare Coffee filling/frosting, mix 1 cup whipped cream and coffee mix until well combined. Set aside.
Mix 1 1/2 cup whipped cream and 1/8 cup crushed oreo. Set aside.
Fondant details are prepared ahead of time.
"Happy Birthday" Acrylic Topper can be bought at baking stores and online shops. I made the chocolate topper for father's day by melting some dark chocolate the spread it in rectangular shape on the parchment paper, let it set at the fridge and I wrote the greeting using whipped cream.
Put the first half of coffee cake in a cake board and spread evenly the coffee frosting. Put the last half then spread coffee frosting at the top.
Frost the sides with plain whipped cream and use scraper to make it smooth.
Do the same with chocolate cake. Put the first half, spread oreo frosting and cover with the last half.
Using plain whipped cream, frost the sides and top of the choco-oreo cake. Make sure that the side is smooth and even.
Put all fondant details for coffee cake.
Now for oreo cake, put some crushed oreo at the bottom side. Drip chocolate at the top side then pipe some oreo frosting at the top leaving a little space in between for oreo cookies. Put the oreo cookies in between oreo frosting.
Pipe oreo frosting to fill half of the cake just like at the photo above.
I used 6B piping tip for oreo frosting.
Put the chocolate topper for coffee cake.
Acrylic topper for oreo cake.
This is how it looks like from the side.
This Cake Duo is recommended for 2 celebrations in 1. For example, for twin sisters/brothers birthday, gender reveal or any 2 occasions that will be celebrated on the same day. It can be 2 different flavors and 2 different designs or one flavor and 2 designs.
