Spongebob.. squarepants!

Spongebob Cake

This cake was not entirely made by me.. a lot of the credit goes to Tau. It may look normal sized but this thing turned out super tiny and it took us over an hour to decorate! Phew! Worth the effort though as it made my younger brother jump in excitment. Because I live in India its almost impossible to find fondant so I did the icing with white chocolate sauce + the required added food colours. The idea is to make a thick, thick sauce which does'nt run while icing! For the outlines i just used regular chocolate sauce!

MY RECIPE FOR THE CHOCOLATE ICING
  • Chocolate Slab with a cocoa to butter ratio of 50% -50% -- not to be substituted with dark chocolate!
  • Fresh Cream
Add the fresh cream to a thick bottomed sauce pan and put on low heat. Break the chocolate slab and add in pieces, stirring constantly. The proportions are pretty flexible-  if you want the sauce thicker reduce the cream and increase the chocolate. Simple!
