Ingredients

  

1x2x3x

Cakes :

• 1 box 200g Maya Party Cupcake Mix
• 2 tbsp. Canola Oil or Melted Butter
• ½ cup Water or Milk
• 1 medium Egg at room temperature
• 1 tsp. Strawberry extract

Frosting:

• ½ cup Frosty Whip Cream Powder
• ¼ cup Icy Cold Water
• 1 tsp. Strawberry extract or 1-2 tbsp. Strawberry syrup

Toppings:

• 1 tbsp. Sprinkles (color of your choice)
• 12-16 pcs. Heart Pink Sprinkles

You Also Need:

• 1 6-inch cake board
• 1 box 5.5×5.5×4 Pre-Formed White Box (optional for business idea only)

Instructions

 

Let’s prepare our Strawberry Cake:

• Preheat Stove-Top heavy-bottom deep pan or any similar cooking ware over medium heat for about 5 minutes.
• Just add enough salt to cover the entire bottom of your pan to help stabilize the heat evenly.
• Place fitted wire rack in the center and cover with a lid.
• The lid hole should be sealed with a foil so the heat can’t escape.
• Line 6-inch round pan with parchment paper.
• Mix all ingredients until smooth, at least 25 strokes or less, do not over mix according to package direction.
• Pour the batter into the baking pan and lightly bang on the table a couple times, to get rid air bubbles.
• Cook the cake in a preheated casserole for about 25-28 minutes.
• Keep an eye on your cake coz’ we may have different kinds of stove and the heat varies.
• To check, insert wooden stick in the center and if comes out clean or a few moist crumbs, it’s done.
• Fire off, let it cool completely on a wire rack, before frosting.

Let’s prepare our Whipped Cream Frosting:

• I’m using ½ cup of Frosty Whip Cream Powder and to that we are going to add a ¼ cup of super cold water.
• Moistened the cream powder first before whipping.
• When it’s fully whipped and aerated, you can add strawberry extract or strawberry syrup and mix until well combined.
• Transfer in a piping bag with your favorite nozzle tip and we are ready to frost.

Let’s Assemble & Frost our Cake:

• Since, we’re going to make a Valentine’s Day Cake, of course we want a heart-shaped cake.
• So, I’m going to use my heart-shaped cutter.
• Cut the cake in the center, from the top to bottom.
• Trim off, the bottom and divide the cake in half.
• In a cake board, put a little whipped cream in the center, this will help your cake stay in place.
• Arrange the cake in the center of your cake board and mousse ring.
• Put ¼ of whipped cream and top with the remaining cake.
• Adjust the mousse ring if needed.
• Add another ¼ part of whipped cream frosting on the top and spread it evenly.
• Take off the mouse ring and chill your cake for at least 30 minutes.
• Frost the sides of your cake and pipe some swirls on top.
• Decorate with sprinkles of your choice and refrigerate.
• Serve and Enjoy!
