I made her about the anniversary of our wedding. I substituted milk and juice from strawberries, beetroot (did not want to use artificial colorings) - did not get the desired color, but the taste and flavor was great too!

Wonderful!

It is very beautiful!

I made cake yesterday. Incredibly delicious! I get a little red, very very noo valvet, ha ... ha ... ha .. This will be my favorite cake, very good is a little evaluation write ten! Upload photos and ...

I omitted to say that I did test mini kekcheta. And that decoration is a small sample of my new pastry tools so do not look much into it ...

cake really is not complicated, hey along these dishes will make me began and sweet thingy to do, especially when viewing pictures. Bravo! Now I ask, I'm a little left .. so I did not understand what cream cover where it is not stated in the recipe.

Petya, great pictures, very glad that you liked the recipe! Mariyanka, made in one of the two types of cream - optional. At least I understand her recipe and when I worked on it (it was a long time ago), the cream was the second option.

Posabrah little information about this cake - the cream cheese is a classic, but can be done with milky cream. Cheese *Mascarpone* is an Italian cheese, thick, oily, slightly sweet, velvety (its structure is like velvet, from there perhaps comes the name of the cake) with ivory, cow's milk. If you can not find this cheese can be replaced by a simple cream cheese.Tip: after bake and cool the latter must well be shrink-wrapped in foil and placed in a refrigerator for several hours or overnight, or in the freezer for at least 1 hour. This is done in order not to be broken when it is moistened with the cream.

I forget to mention that the cup has a capacity of 240 ml. Petya you with any cream make it?

Thank you John for the info, but the question of mascarpone, I produce it from goat's milk, and it has by mistake, and is 100 times better than the Italian .. and it's quite expensive in our stores .. Council instead use cream cheese curd paste, this is exactly the mascarpone cheese, which is like a cream pie and the other the ordinary cottage cheese that's Italian ricotta. So use your Bulgarian our products are pretty good quality. At least that is my opinion after tasting all popular Italian products, our have a very very nice.

You're right, Mariyanche, of homemade, better quality and no. Some time ago, when we had goats and we were doing homemade cream cheese was very nice :). I personally have not tried this type of cheese *Mascarpone*.

Oleee how active you are today. So I did my cake is entirely mascarpone wit 500 g cream cheese instead of 230 and 230 maskarp. Here 500 gr. Mascarpone is about three euros is not expensive. But could easily and with cream cheese effect is the same. No time to wait because of this is we ate only 2 hours in the refrigerator remaining half of cake doyadohme today and was really good yesterday. I found the recipe in others. site and decided to get after is has been deleted realized that someone smarter already found. The products are almost identical only wonder why it is not so much red as in others. cakes if not put cocoa that will get me deep red? Very good try, true it depends on the tastes of each, but I very much liked me and I do not eat sweets for health reasons, but ate a piece confess.

Petya, I think Cocoa and gives a darker color. If you want a bright red probably should not put cocoa.

I think so, John. It and the picture can be seen that it is because the red paint is super good, but has a brown tinge perhaps cocoa, but it itself provides another taste of the marsh so I wonder if it ignored the next time, which will be rather because this recipe I like.

Hello girls come again I am. This time with ordinary Pastry gift, but this recipe will rob points ...

It is very beautiful decoration!

Very gentle, clean and simultaneously beautiful decoration. Bravo, pepeleon! I'm very glad your beauty.

Thank you girls very glad that you like me so the ordinary decoration (hee, hee). I'm glad someone appreciates even my little work. Embrace your heart!

here shedyovyryt there

John that made her incredible beauty! Congratulations!

John, enchantingly beautiful cake! I can not and clearer and Narada! Poinsettia is more beautiful than real .. Bravo!

John, well done! Cover your perfect! Far been able to count and track is the second, right? And at first, with the yellow drapery, was without fault, but here shows much better, how precise work :)

Thanks for all the nice words! Rally, yes, this is my second cake sugar-coated. The cake itself is not put together well (no evening up the latter must - were uneven swollen, but I hope with more cream to reconcile, not put adequate padding under the Fund) and hence the coverage was not perfect, but overall is OK, bearing in mind that no particular effort I put in this cake. The star is the same, I did some time ago, it only repaint :).

Hello! I loved the cake and I want to surprise Mom and Dad with her new year. STM many times tried to make fondant, but I do not receive. If you can help me with a recipe for the Fund will be very grateful!

I did it with Kerm first option for birthday small. Tonight will taste :)
