Welcome to How to Cook That I am Ann Reardon ohhhhh who lives in a pineapple under the
-
sea? Sponge Bob square pants... Yes this week it's a sponge bob cake
-
And to start with make two trays of cake I'm using my red velvet cake recipe. I'll put
-
a link in the description below to this weeks blog post which will have the recipe for the
-
cake and the amounts of fondant that you need and the videos for all of those. You can use
-
the chocolate cake or the sponge cake and I'll link to all of those there.
-
Once the cakes are completely cooled you need to cut them in half and then cut each half
-
into 3 pieces. You need to do that with both of your cakes and these will make all of the
-
pieces you need for sponge bobs body.
-
Place some frosting onto a cake board and then a layer of cake. I am using cream cheese
-
frosting between the layers of this because it goes well with the red velvet. and that
-
recipe video is also on my channel.
-
On each layer of cake I also like to brush a small amount of simple syrup this is just
-
equal quantities of sugar and water and instead of water here I've used the left over cherry
-
syrup from the cherries that I used in the cake. And this just helps keep the cake really
-
moist and really yummy. It doesn't make it soggy it just makes it moist.
-
Because this is a tall cake it's going to need some support. Poke a cake pop stick into
-
the cake until it hits the base and then trim it off at that level, so the level of the
-
top of cake. And then cut three more stick to that same level and push them all back
-
into the cake. Then add a cake board that is slightly smaller than the cake top and
-
continue to stack the cake. I get so many questions when I show you how to do this saying
-
how do I eat that and won't I get cardboard in my mouth?
-
As with any large cake you slice it up to eat it you cut it into slices when you slice
-
this once you'd slice down to the cardboard layer and cut those slices off the top then
-
once you've finished that section remove the board and supports and cut the next layer
-
into slices. All tall cakes, wedding cakes and tiered cakes all have support like this.
-
If you haven't been the person cutting it up then you just probably haven't seen it
-
before. It just stops the weight of the cake on top from squashing the layers at the bottom.
-
Once you've stacked it all the way up to the top hold your printout in front of the cake
-
and trim around it. I'll put a link to the spongebob picture in the size that I am using
-
on my website so you can print it in the same size.
-
Next cut chunks out of the sides of the cake so you have that rough rounded sponge look
-
to it.
-
Now cover the whole thing in a layer of frosting, I am using american buttercream for this part
-
because it is better under fondant that the cream cheese is. To make this quicker you
-
can use a piping bag like I am here to pipe a layer over the cake, then smooth it with
-
a spatula. Once it is completely covered put it in the fridge for 30 minutes to firm up.
-
While it is chilling place some non-stick baking paper over the print out. Roll a ball
-
of white and cut it in half to give you two even pieces for your eyes. Roll each of those
-
into a ball and put it on the template and round it and squash it slightly using the
-
palm of your hand and round it some more and keep doing that until it is just the right
-
size and nice and round. Do that with the other side as well
-
For his teeth roll out some white and trim the fondant to the width of the teeth that
-
you can see on the template there. but make them taller than you need so that we can poke
-
them in later on. We don't want them too big though, just cut it above where you want them,
-
on the same curve, just a little bit taller.
-
For the iris of his eye roll out some blue and cut out a circle I always like to make
-
three, I know there are only two eyes. so I can choose the best two. Take some blue
-
powdered colour and brush it around on two sides so that it leaves a lighter patch at
-
the top and the bottom.
-
Roll a ball of black and squash it in the centre of the eye for his pupil. Then you
-
want to take a tiny tiny ball of white and add it just to the edge for that sparkle in
-
his eye. Squash it down using the end of a paint brush. And you can see the difference
-
that little bit of the white makes they eye look alive compared to the one without it.
-
Put a tiny dab of water onto the eyeball and add the coloured part gently putting it into
-
place.
-
If you follow me on social media then you'll know How To Cook That has been chosen as a
-
nominee in the 2014 Taste Awards in two different categories
-
I'd love it if you could vote because this is decided purely by the public, so by you.
-
I'll put a link below so you can find that because it is a bit hard to find the voting
-
form on there. You'll need to scroll down to categories 5
-
&12: Which is best Home Chef in a Series and
-
Best Instructional Web Series. Thank you so much for that you guys for helping
-
me out with that you are awesome
-
Roll out some black fondant and using a pizza cutter cut thin strips. Place your print out
-
underneath and trim them to make the eye lashes. They are very big eyelashes
-
Then do the same thing with his belt. Don't forget to make more belt bits you don't just
-
need them for the front you need them for the back and the side of sponge bob too.
-
Now lets make his arms and his legs I am adding tylose powder to the fondant. This makes it
-
dry out faster. You just add some in and massage it through until it is well combined.
-
Roll out one arm leaving one end fat, if you don't have tylose you can make these details
-
a couple of days ahead and just let them dry out that way. But if you want to do it all
-
on the one day you are going to need the tylose powder to get these to dry out that fast.
-
Squash up the fat end a bit more and then flatten it out, this will be his hand. Make
-
three cuts, yes, he only has 4 fingers. Then separate the fingers and smooth them around,
-
his fingers are a bit fatter at the ends. A bit like a gecko but not so flat. And so
-
just use your fingers to seperate each one and smooth it round there. Now if you put
-
your hand flat on the bench you'll see your thumb sits out to one side away from the fingers
-
so just arrange his hand like that. Make sure when you do that that the other hand his thumb
-
goes on the opposite side, I made two right hands today so not quite right
-
Now we want that to set with the wrist up at an angle, the easiest way to do that is
-
to lie the arm down and prop up the hand by leaning that baking paper against a wall.
-
Now for his little legs roll some white and yellow, cut the end off each to make it straight
-
and join them together, roll it a little bit more using your fingers just to smooth out
-
that join. And then trim it to the right length and repeat for
-
the other leg. I have added tylose powder to this bit of white as well.
-
Roll a super skinny snake of blue and I mean tiny place it next to the leg and roll the
-
leg over all the way around until it joins up with the other end of the blue. Trim it
-
off and repeat with the other leg, then add the red in just the same way. and leave the
-
legs to harden.
-
For his shoes roll out some grey and cut rectangles in the size of the sole of his shoe. Trim
-
off each corner to round it and then cut a chunk out of the side at one end so you're
-
defining where the sole of his shoe is. Roll out some more grey and cut out a square, cut
-
two corners off and round out that side then add it for the heel of the shoe.
-
Take some black, roll it into a ball then using your little finger just press slightly
-
in the middle and roll it in the middle and roll it there to make a weird jelly bean shape
-
like this. Add it to the sole and using your finger pull it down to join the base. Take
-
the smooth end of the paintbrush and make a hole a little bit larger than the width
-
of his leg in the shoe. Make sure it is big enough because we will add the leg into the
-
shoe later and we don't want it to be too small.
-
For his nose roll out some fondant making it round and fatter and one end. Then add
-
piece of spaghetti into the middle. This is going to give it the support it needs so that
-
when it sticks out of the cake it is not just going to sag down or break off.
-
Place that into a cup and leave it to dry out.
-
Now back to the cake, roll out some brown fondant so that it is long enough to wrap
-
the whole way around the body. Trim it to make it straight on one edge, then trim bigger
-
than we want it to be. You can see the brown is very skinny but I want you to trim it right
-
up where the white goes rather than where the brown goes and we;ll just overlap it.
-
Wrap it around the base of the cake, at the back squeeze it together at the back and using
-
scissors trim it off.
-
Because he has square pants make the corners at the base look sharp so use your fingers
-
to bring it together and pinch it in. so you get that nice straight line on each of your
-
corners.
-
Wrap the white around in exactly the same way pushing it together at the back and trimming
-
it off and the you can see here it is not straight that's OK just get a knife or a ruler
-
to push it up and make it straight line.
-
Now add the yellow over the top, smooth it out using your hand on the front of the cake
-
and the back of the cake and then on the sides pinch it together and trim off the excess.
-
Then use your finger to smooth down the join.
-
Hold the printout up against your cake so you know roughly where to cut then cut a wavy
-
edge along the front there. Don't push too hard we don't want to cut the white and the
-
brown fondant. We just want to cut the yellow so just gently cut and pull away the yellow
-
until it just comes off.
-
Use your fingers to push the fondant around the bumps on the sides of the cake and the
-
top of the cake. to make them more defined.
-
Using the printout mark where the middle of the mouth and each corner of the mouth is
-
then use a knife to cut out his smile. Lift the fondant forward of his top lip forward
-
a little bit and push his teeth into place making sure they are straight.
-
Next take something rounded if you don't have one of these rounded cake tools you can just
-
use a marble that will be fine. Just rub it on the cake to make an indent where they go
-
on his body don't forget to do the sides and back and top as well. We also want to make
-
big indents where his eyes go, they don't need to be deep, they just need to be wide.
-
So it gives us a little recess for putting his eyeballs in.
-
Add his eyes into place. If while you're going this and making room for his eye makes the
-
top lip sags a bit there then you are going to need to do some plastic surgery and just
-
trim it up with scissors to reshape it. You never knew you were a plastic surgeon. Roll
-
a ball of yellow and cut it in two and add in place for the cheeks. Then using a food
-
grade marker add three little dots to each cheek. If you don't have a marker you could
-
use some red food colour on the tip of a skewer instead.
-
Carefully add each of the eyelashes into place using a tiny bit of water to make it stick.
-
Don't use too much of you are going to get black doming off the fondant there.
-
Take some powdered food colour and brush a little into each hole, I am using a mixture
-
of green and silver colour and brush that in using a dry paint brush.
-
To make his tie cut out the shape from the print out then roll a ball of red and trim
-
it off straight for the top. Add the belt strips into place on the front of the cake,
-
then the tie and the top of the tie and then some white fondant for the collar to the front
-
of him.
-
Take a strip of brown and wrap it around the top of his leg, you can see how the leg is
-
already fairly firm that is because we used the tylose. trim it at an angle and add it
-
to the cake.
-
Lift his leg and place it into his little shoe.
-
Wrap some white around the top of his arm and then trim the top corners off the top
-
and use your finger to round it around so it looks like the shoulder on a t-shirt. Then
-
that up very carefully and add it to the side of the cake.
-
Repeat that with his other arm. And then add his nose poking it into the cake.
-
In the sponge bob movie, sponge bob out of the water he is one the beach in some of the
-
scenes so to make sand crush up some biscuits or cookie. If you use filled ones you'll get
-
like a wet sand, if you use unfilled it will be dry. Roll the rolling pin over it to get
-
rid of any lumps. Pipe a strip of buttercream around the edge
-
of the board, and the reason we do this is just to stop all the crumbs falling off everywhere.
-
Then add you crumbs over the board and around sponge bob.
-
Make a sand castle by pushing some crumbs into a medicine cup and tipping it out just
-
like you would with a real sand castle then add that to one side.
-
This cake is actually going to a charity auction which has the theme 'dream again' so I'm adding
-
a mini version of the book in the movie with the words dream again written on it just to
-
the front there
