Method
Cake Batter, mixing: Mix all ingredients except Smoobees on medium speed for 4 minutes. Add Smoobees and mix on low speed for 1 minute.
Cake Batter, baking: Divide 2200 g on each tray and bake approx. 20 minutes at 180°C. Let it cool down. Cut circles of 16 cm Ø out of the cake and keep them aside (approx. 235 g/pc).
Build up, decorating: Take a piece of the cake and spread 40 g melted Pralicrac on it. Place a second layer of cake on top and spread 20 g of Deli Caramel on it. Repeat this step 3 times until you have 6 layers of cake.
- Build up
Whip Ambiante and optionally add some orange colouring. Cover the entire cake with Ambiante (approx. 250 g/pc) and freeze.
- Build up
Place 2 hands of marshmallows in a plastic box. Put this in the microwave for 10 seconds. The marshmallow will start to puff up.
- Build up
Take the frozen cake and dip your fingers in the marshmallow. Wear gloves to do this! Create spider webs on the cake and decorate with some chocolate bats.
Tip from the chef: 1. To keep the spider webs longer, spray Ambiante with some coloured cocoa butter*. This protects the marshmallow from absorbing the humidity of Ambiante. 2. If the cake is well frozen you will not break the cream with the marshmallow and you get a cleaner look.
