A four-layer chocolate cake with vanilla funfetti frosting and all the chocolate drip for a tremendous melted ice cream cake! 

All of us keep in mind the ice cream upside on a cake pattern proper?! Properly, I'm right here ~a number of~ years later to deliver it again as a result of I like them nonetheless, and I'm simply obsessive about how this cake seems to be in each single method. 

I needed to create a very fairly cake that can be completely scrumptious, and right here it's! A ‘melted ice cream cake’ made with 4 layers of sponges, buttercream dotted with sprinkles, a scrumptious chocolate drip and naturally, the ice cream cone!

Sponges

For a cake like this, you need one thing sturdy, scrumptious and simple to bake… so I went chocolate cake! I do know I do know, one other chocolate cake… however don’t fear, you can also make it vanilla by eradicating the cocoa powder, including in self-raising flour as a substitute, and vanilla! Every thing else stays the identical. 

I needed to make a 6″ cake for this, as a result of I discovered the look of the cake is healthier as a 6″ cake – the smaller dimension makes the cake look taller and fits the fashion. I always use these 6″ tins as a result of I discover them greatest.

I exploit both a baking unfold or room temperature butter, gentle brown tender sugar, eggs, self elevating flour, cocoa powder and a smidge of vanilla makes probably the most scrumptious sponge. 

Buttercream

So as a result of I needed this cake to seem like a melted ice cream, I needed a color that fits the thought of ice cream… you'll be able to mainly use any color that you just fancy, however I made a decision vanilla would distinction very well with a drip, after which the flavour will distinction effectively as effectively. 

Room temperature unsalted block butter is greatest for this – particularly if you're baking in the summertime. A rule for me is to NEVER use a variety or margarine for buttercream because it simply DOES NOT WORK. You wish to use block butter so it corporations up very nice as soon as made. 

I used vanilla extract to flavour, in addition to the icing sugar. An equal 1:2 ratio of butter to icing sugar is what I at all times stay by – and it labored completely. Nevertheless, I needed color… so I made a decision so as to add some sprinkles final minute… 

Sprinkles

Oh sure, I do know… FUNFETTI SPRINKLES! Oh sure, I believed why not add some sprinkles to the cake as a result of I personally douse my ice lotions in sprinkles, particularly whenever you go to an ice cream kiosk in the midst of summer time by the seaside… so why not on a melted ice cream cake like this?! 

At first I did surprise if it might even work as a result of including texture to a buttercream after which attempting to easy it round can typically trigger a little bit of a problem, however it works with the biscuit crumbs in my Oreo drip cake! 

You don’t want so as to add tonnes of Funfetti Sprinkles however it’s price including sufficient to really get the look you're after – so I discovered 100g of sprinkles excellent. I do use these BEAUTIFUL sprinkles which are authorized and bake steady within the uk as effectively.

If you happen to aren’t positive what which means; some sprinkles (resembling American sprinkles) are sometimes unlawful within the uk due to the components that they use, whereas a lot of sprinkles within the UK are such poor high quality they dissolve or flip inexperienced when baked with. 

Meeting 

With regards to a cake like this, it’s mainly all about assembling of the cake and getting it bang on. I discover utilizing the right instruments resembling small angled spatulas, turntables, large metal scrapers and so forth. 

As a result of these muffins are baked into two deeper layers, I discover splitting every one into two layers (to make 4 complete) creates the proper cake. Utilizing one thing resembling a cake leveller makes it even and flat. I don’t discover I have to take off the highest of the sponges as as a result of they're baked at a decrease temperature they're robotically flatter. 

Layer your first sponge onto your chosen (flat) board or plate, add some buttercream, easy over and layer. I create a crumb coat with a very small quantity of buttercream to seal in any crumbs, and chill the cake. I then add on additional buttercream and easy over once more. To get a very easy end, heating your large metal scrapers beneath the new faucet can create a fantastic look. 

The leftover buttercream is left for the ice cream have an effect on on the finish. 

Drip 

For the drip I made a decision to make use of one in every of my regular recipes; the identical drip I now use just about on a regular basis from my chocolate drip cake. The combination of darkish chocolate, milk chocolate and double cream creates the proper texture for a drip and I'm obsessed as at all times. 

I normally use small piping luggage to make a drip like on my different drip muffins, however as this cake was meant to have the ‘melted’ component to it, I made a decision to mainly pour the ganache on high and let it drip itself… and I find it irresistible!!
