How to make a steam train cake?
- Combine all the ingredients for the dough in a deep bowl. As a result, you should get a homogeneous dense mass, like a pancake.
- Now you can bake cakes. To do this, put the dough on the laid baking sheet. Cooking time is approximately forty to fifty minutes. Do not open the oven during baking. Cakes due to honey darkened, rose, restore shape after pressing - these are the main signs of readiness.
- Now mix the cream and sour cream in a bowl. Then add sugar. Put the mass in the refrigerator.
- When the cakes are baked, let them cool.
- Prepare a large dish or tray.
- Brew in two glasses of tea bag. You can add some sugar.
- Then take cakes (carefully, they can be fragile).
- Cut the cakes in half in length.
- If they rose well, then cut them also lengthwise into two parts.
- If pieces break off, leave them, they will come in handy.
- Then take the tea, which has already cooled slightly. Water them all the cakes, especially the edges, because they are hard. Just do not overdo it. Otherwise, the cakes will become soaked, then the cake cannot be collected.
- Then remove the cream from the refrigerator. Stir it again with a spoon.
- Take a tray, put the first cake on it. Leave more space on the front than on the back, because there you have to lay out the grill that will protrude.
- Lubricate this cake with cream. Dry places (if required) soak in tea. Lay the second cake on top. Soak it too. Do the same with all the other cakes.
- Now take the knife, begin to shape the future train. To do this, step back from the rear edge (place for the cabin), cut 3 cm from the cake to the left, but do not cut to the bottom (leave a couple of layers). Mark the right side symmetrically. Cut her too.
- Then give the middle part of the engine a cylindrical shape, slowly squeezing it. Grease all cut pieces with cream, save them. Put the cab out of the cut parts. She should be in front of the engine. Also lay out the grill in front. Now we have a product similar to a steam locomotive. Give time to soak, dry.
Final stage
- After the cake has hardened, take a green coconut flake, a napkin and two pieces of foil. Then cover the bottom of the cake with a sheet. Then sprinkle the cylindrical part with chips. Then remove the paper. Then sprinkle the bottom of the engine and the cabin with blue chips.
- After peeling the kiwi. Cut one of the fruits into thin round slices in order to make wheels. Apply them on the sides, two side by side. The result is three pairs on the left and the same number of pairs of wheels on the right.
- Give the second kiwi a square shape, cut thin pieces of rectangular shape from it. These will be the windows of the cabin. We need five of them: two on the sides and three in the middle.
- Take a half of the second fruit, cut off the corners, giving it a rounded shape. The pipe should turn out, put it on top. You can cut a recess in the cake under it.
- Take the tangerine, peel, disassemble into slices, cut each half in half so that the flesh is visible. From these pieces lay out decorations for the grill, as well as the top of the cab.
- Now you need a banana. Clean it, cut along thin plates. Cut strips from each of them. They lay out the pattern on the cylindrical part of the cake. Wipe off excess. Everything, ready cake "Engine". With your own hands you managed to make a delicious dessert. Now send it to the refrigerator so that the cake retains its shape and the cream freezes. When the cake is soaked well, it will be even tastier.
