Unicorn cake for girls without mastic

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   To make a sponge cake, combine the eggs with sugar and whisk at maximum speed of the mixer into a fluffy mass.

2. Step 2:

   

   Parallel put butter and milk on the fire. Bring to a boil and boil a little so that the butter melts. Sift the premium flour through a sieve and combine with soda and vanilla.

3. Step 3:

   

   Alternately, in several steps, add flour and hot milk mixture to the beaten eggs. Mix everything carefully, using a whisk. The dough should remain fluffy and airy.

4. Step 4:

   

   Pour the entire amount of dough onto 3 baking sheets from a conventional gas oven. Pre-cover the baking sheets themselves with baking paper. Bake all three biscuits in the oven, preheated to 180 degrees, for 15-20 minutes each. Cool the finished biscuits and separate them from the paper.

5. Step 5:

   

   For the filling, cut the strawberries into pieces and mix with sugar and starch. Put on the fire and, with constant stirring, bring to a boil. When heated, the sugar will dissolve, and the whole mass will become thick. Cool the finished strawberry filling completely.

6. Step 6:

   

   For the cream, combine the heavy cream, with a fat content of at least 33%, with powdered sugar and whisk into a fluffy, stable cream.

8. Step 7:

   

   Cut out the outline of a unicorn from each sponge cake.

9. Step 8:

   

   Soak each sponge cake with syrup or water. Spread the cream over the entire surface and lay out the strawberry filling so that it does not reach a little to the edges.

10. Step 9:

    

    So collect the whole cake. Coat it on top and sides with cream and put it in the refrigerator for a few hours so that it is well soaked and the cream freezes.

11. Step 10:

    

    On the frozen cake, cut out a little with a sharp knife a recess near the horse's nose so that it is slightly convex from the trunk. For decoration, melt the chocolate with the addition of a small amount of cream. Make the eyes, the ear and the outline of the head with chocolate.

12. Step 11:

    

    To decorate, whisk the heavy cream with powdered sugar and decorate the entire surface of the unicorn with white cream using a pastry bag and a nozzle. Then, using food coloring, highlight the ear, eye and horn.

13. Step 12:

    

    The last step is to decorate the nose and make a unicorn mane. Put the cake in the refrigerator for a while longer so that the cream coloring has time to harden a little.
