Salted Caramel Cake Recipe
Posted by Roberts Edible Craft on 12th Oct 2020
Everyday can be a celebration with our Party Cake kits. For that small gathering or midweek celebration with family, our Party Cake kits come with everything you need to celebrate in style.
We knew that the majority of parties are held on a weekend, with lots of family and friends. But it is often not the actual date of your birthday. So what about the mid week party, the one you have with just immediate family on the actual day of your birthday, engagement or great news! We designed them with this idea in mind...
What you will need:
For the Cake:
- Roberts Edible Craft - Party Cake Kit Caramel
- 3 Extra Large Eggs (700g Packet)
- 1/3 Cup Vegetable Oil
- 2/3 Cup Water
For the Icing
- 100g Unsalted Butter, softened (but not melted)
- 1 Tablespoon Milk
Equipment
- Two 6 inch x 2 inch Cake Tins lined with baking Paper
Step 1.
Get Ready and pre-heat the oven to 150 degrees Celsius, fan forced setting. Make sure your tins are lined.
Step 2.
Place the dry cake mix, eggs, oil and water into a medium sized bowl. Using a large spoon or spatula, mix until smooth.
Step 3
Divide the batter evenly into your two prepared tins. Bake for 35 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the centre of the cake comes out clean. Remove cakes from the oven, and cool in the tins for 15 minutes, before turning onto a cooling rack to cool completely.
Step 4
Place the dry icing mix, softened butter and milk into a deep mixing bowl. Using an electric mixer, mix on the lowest speed until combined. Scrape down the sides and base of the bowl. Mix on high speed for 3 minutes until icing is light and fluffy.
Step 5 - Lets Decorate!
Trim the cake layers if required, to create a flat and even top.
Place the first cake layer onto your serving plate, cut side facing up.
Spread a thin layer of icing on top - just enough to stick the two cake layers together.
Place the second cake layer on top - cut side facing down.
Cover the entire cake with a thin layer of icing.
Spoon remaining icing into a piping bag. (If available use an Open Round nozzle, or our Roberts NS01 1.2 cm 2A Open Round Piping Nozzle set)
Pipe small dots of icing around the entire perimeter of the top of the cake, approx 3 cm in from the edge.
Sprinkle the included Salted Caramel sprinkle mix around the base and top of the cake.
