Easy Color-Cubed Cake with Pancake Mix
- 450 grams Pancake mix
- 3 Eggs
- 300 ml Milk
- 10 grams Cocoa powder
- 4 grams Strawberry powder
- 500 ml Whipped cream
- Add the eggs and milk to a bowl.
- Use a whisk to mix together.
- Add the pancake mix little by little and mix well to get rid of the lumps.
- Grease an 18cm round cake pan.
- Pour the batter into the pan and gently get rid of the air bubbles.
- Bake in a 180C (356 Fahrenheit) oven for 20 minutes.
- If an inserted skewer is removed cleanly, it's done.
- Remove from the cake pan while still hot and let it cool.
- Make the strawberry and cocoa cakes following the same steps as the plain cake.
- To make the strawberry spongecake, add the strawberry powder and red food coloring during Step 2.
- To make the cocoa spongecake, add the cocoa powder during Step 2.
- Pour each into separate greased cake pans and bake for 18-20 minutes in a 180C (356 Fahrenheit) oven.
- Once the cakes have cooled, use a cake knife to scrape off the browned surfaces and flip them upside down.
- Cut out a circle from the center of the cake, and then cut out another circle from the center of the cut out circle.
- As the picture shows, put the circles together without overlapping the colors.
- In Step 12, to hold the cakes together, use whipped cream as a paste.
- It won't fall apart as easily when being sliced.
- Once you put the circles together to form 3 different colored cakes, spread the bottommost cake with whipped cream.
- Place the middle layer cake on top and spread that cake with whipped cream.
- Place the topmost cake on top and begin decorating.
- I decorated it with "Kracie's Nerikan Land" soft candies and a figurine, as seen in the finished product in the photo.
- If talking about flavor, I like marzipan better than soft candies, but this was easier to do.
- Once you have decorated it however you choose, it's done.
- There's no sugar added to the cake batter, so it's just mildly sweet.
- Try drizzling some maple syrup over the top of the whipped cream when enjoying this cake.
- I also recommend spreading syrup onto the cakes before adding the whipped cream.
