MARBLED PEPPERMINT ANGEL CAKE



Marbled Peppermint Angel Cake image

This is a beautiful, fun cake to make during Christmas time. One note: I've used liquid food coloring and found the colors very pale. Using a paste food coloring like Wilton's allows a more vivid color to be achieved without adding too much liquid. You need a small bit of the paste coloring. I use a toothpick dipped in the paste to "measure". Also, I specify "peppermint" candy cane because now red & white candy canes can be other flavors. I don't really think cherry flavor would be the same! One other note, it is best to serve this within a few hours after putting the candy cane on it because depending on the humidity, the candy will melt and it is just not as pretty.

ANGEL CAKE



Angel cake image

Treat guests to this colourful angel cake with decorative fondant icing. It will go down well with a cuppa for afternoon tea

Provided by Liberty Mendez

Time 1h5m

Number Of Ingredients 12

50g unsalted butter plus extra for the tin
150g caster sugar
4 large eggs
150g plain flour, sieved
a drop each of pink and yellow food colouring
a drop each of lemon and raspberry extract
100g butter, softened
200g icing sugar
1 tsp vanilla paste
½ tbsp milk
200g fondant icing sugar
pink food colouring

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Butter a 25 x 20cm baking tin, and line the base with baking parchment. Stack a sheet of baking parchment over a sheet of foil, then fold in half so the parchment is facing out. Use this to divide the tin into three sections crosswise, each about 8cm wide.
  • Melt the butter, remove from the heat and set aside. Put the sugar and eggs in a large heatproof bowl over a pan of just simmering water, making sure the bottom of the bowl doesn't touch the water. Beat using an electric whisk until really thick and pale, about 4-5 mins.
  • Add a fifth of the mixture to the melted butter and mix to combine. Pour the butter mixture into the egg mixture, and carefully fold in along with the flour. Divide the mixture between three bowls. Leave one bowl of batter plain, then fold a drop each of pink food colouring and raspberry extract into the second bowl, and a drop each of yellow food colouring and lemon extract into the third bowl.
  • Carefully pour one of the batters into each of the three sections in the prepared tin. Bake for 12-15 mins until cooked through, or a skewer inserted into the middle of the cakes comes out clean. Leave to cool slightly in the tin, then carefully transfer the three cakes to a wire rack and leave to cool completely.
  • To make the buttercream, beat the butter, sugar, vanilla and milk together for 5 mins with an electric whisk until pale and creamy. To assemble the cake, put the plain sponge on a board and spread with half the buttercream. Top with the raspberry sponge, then spread with the remaining buttercream and top with the lemon sponge. Trim the sides so they're straight, even and neat.
  • To make the fondant icing, sift the sugar into a bowl and mix with 1½-3 tbsp water until you have a thick, droppable icing. Transfer a quarter of the icing to a second bowl, and mix in a drop of pink food colouring. Transfer the pink icing to a piping bag.
  • Spread the plain fondant icing over the top of the lemon sponge, making sure it doesn't drip down the sides. Pipe thin lines of pink icing on top across the width of the cake, space apart. Drag a cocktail stick through the lines lengthways to create a marbled effect. Leave to set slightly, then slice the cake into six even rectangles.

Tips:

  • To achieve the perfect marbling effect, ensure the peppermint extract is thoroughly mixed into the batter.
  • For a more intense peppermint flavor, use a combination of peppermint extract and crushed candy canes.
  • To prevent the cake from sticking to the pan, grease and flour the pan thoroughly before pouring in the batter.
  • Bake the cake in a preheated oven to ensure even cooking and prevent the cake from sinking in the middle.
  • Allow the cake to cool completely before frosting it to prevent the frosting from melting.
  • For a smooth and creamy frosting, beat the butter and cream cheese until light and fluffy before adding the powdered sugar.
  • To create a marbled frosting effect, divide the frosting into two bowls and color one bowl with peppermint extract.
  • Swirl the two colors of frosting together before frosting the cake for a stunning visual effect.
  • Top the cake with crushed candy canes, peppermint candies, or chocolate shavings for a festive touch.

Conclusion:

The Marbled Peppermint Angel Cake is a delightful dessert that combines the classic flavors of peppermint and chocolate. With its light and fluffy texture, moist crumb, and stunning marbled appearance, this cake is sure to impress your guests. Perfect for any special occasion, this cake is a delicious and festive treat that is sure to satisfy your sweet tooth.
