$\"DSC_1721\"$ <\/p>\n

My little sister married end of april. And to my great joy she asked me if I would bake the wedding cake.<\/p>\n

After talking a little bit with her and my (then still future) brother in law we decided that I bake a three tired wedding cake consisting of a raspberry white chocolate torte (28 cm diameter), a Sachertorte (24 cm diameter) and a lactoste free vanilla cream torte (18 cm diameter).<\/p>\n

I calculated that I would need two days to make the cake: one for baking the raspberry white chocolate torte and the vanilla cream torte and one for decoration. Our Mum baked the Sachertorte after the recipe of Oma Bucholtz<\/a> (fund at Schnuppsch\u00fcss<\/a>) 10 days before the wedding because this cake needs a long rest before serving.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

For the two cakes I bake I decided to use Goldenen Ciffon<\/a> dough because this cake is as airy as a sponge but withstand long cooling periods better then sponge. And who plans to make such a huge amount of dough like I did should have a very big bowl or should prepare two times half of the amount. I don\u2019t have a big bowl and of course I did the whole recipe. That worked until I started to fold the egg white into the dough. The bowl of my kitchen machine was definitely to small to hold all of the dough.<\/p>\n

Now I was in trouble. Luckily I own a big food saver from Ikea, which I use sometimes for making bread dough. And this container was big enough to fold in all of the egg white without any further trouble.<\/p>\n

Baking the cake \u2013 no problem. Let them cool down\u2013 no problem. Making the vanilla cream torte \u2013 no problem. $\"DSC_1438\"$ <\/p>\n

And then I prepare the white chocolate raspberry torte. For this cake I used my adjustable cake ring. I adjust it at 28 cm and lined bottom and sides with cake \u2013 everything was still fine. I filled it with the filling \u2013 everything was still fine. I turned my back to the cake to put some bowls in the dishwasher. And then I heard a drop. And a second drop. When the third drop fell on the floor I was already back at the counter, seeing a small stream of pink filling running over the counter, down the cupboard, to drop then on the floor.<\/p>\n

The stupid adjustable cake ring decided that it like to adjust its size just now.<\/p>\n

I griped the cake with its plate and hold it over one of the bowls with one hand, while with the other one I tried to bring the ring to 28 cm again. The boyfriend who heard me swearing under my breath took a look in the kitchen and ran directly to fetch some water and some cloth to clean the floor.<\/p>\n

Luckily I could save most of the filling and so I just adjust the height of the sides with a sharp knife so that they fit the height of the filling.<\/p>\n

The next day I spent most of the time with decorating the cake. That was easier then I thought it would be. Only with the middle cake I was not happy. It was still bumpy and the dark chocolate was shining through the fondant. The next morning \u2013 the day of the wedding \u2013 I lay awake in my bed, thinking: I have still fondant left, so why don\u2019t put a second layer fondant on the first.<\/p>\n

And so I was at 6 o\u2019clock in the morning back in the kitchen, removing all decoration from the cake to cover it with a second layer fondant. And now I was satisfied with this cake, too.<\/p>\n

This are my conclusions from making this wedding cake:<\/p>\n

I love the small blue silicon dough scraper, which my mum bought for me. You can scrap all filling or dough out of the bowl with it.<\/li>\n

I had this stupid adjustable cake ring. I want to have a new one!<\/li>\n

Making wedding cakes is exhausting but it is a lot of fun, too!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
