Rainbow cake
In order to make their home "rainbow cake", especially children, we will need to bake 6 sponge cakes. The time that will take you cooking, about 2 hours.
The dough for sponge cake prepare as follows
We will need:
8 eggs;
1.5 cups of sugar;
pinch of salt;
3.5 cups flour;
1 tsp. vanilla sugar or a pinch of vanilla;
0.5 teaspoon of baking powder;
colored food dyes.
Proteins neatly separated from the yolks and start whipping with salt, introducing sugar (sugar is better to replace it with powdered sugar, the whites, then whipped faster). But remember, before you beat the whites make sure they you are in a dry bowl (if you get even a drop of water, the process of whipping will be very hard). Once you get strong and thick foam, put the mixer on minimum speed and carefully add the egg yolks, flour, baking powder and vanilla. Using an electric mixer, all this stir. Our dough is ready.
How much test you failed, it must be divided into 6 equal portions. Each portion was "painted" in different colors using food coloring.
Following your actions depend on what exactly you see your "rainbow cake". You can simply bake colorful cakes, put the batter into the pan, pre-greased with butter or vegetable oil and bake in a preheated 180?C oven for 10 minutes. In the prepared pan with a spoon to mix the dough in any sequence. For example, a spoon of red, then orange, yellow, green, blue, blue... and so all the dough. Cake bake in a preheated 180? the oven for 20-25 minutes.
While the cake is baked, prepare the cream, for which we need:
800 g of cream (fat content of 30%);
1 Cup powdered sugar;
15 g of gelantine (bag);
1/3 Cup of boiling water;
1 tablespoon cognac, rum or brandy;
3/4 Cup water.
