The Pink Cake-Raspberry Rose Cake

It is a butter cake flavoured with raspberry, it is moist with a touch of sweetness, cover with pink chocolate icing and dressed with sugared rose petals.

The Preparation:

Ingredients:

3 cups self-rising flour, 1 cup full of castor sugar, 250 unsalted butter, 4 large free-range eggs, milk, raspberry coulis, and a drop of food colouring.

Raspberry Coulis
Making the raspberry coulis, use a frozen one

The Baking
Lined the tin, spoon the cake batter onto the prepared tin, level and slash the top lightly.  Bake in the preheated a fan-forced oven at 155 - 160 degrees C for 55-60 minutes.

The batter of the cake looks a dusky pink after it's added with the raspberry coulis, I was surprised, I did not expect that.

The Decorating
White chocolate cake, unsalted butter, icing powder and pink food colouring.

Fresh flowers and herbs for garnishes and sugared rose petals to dress the cake.

The fresh flowers and herbs, pick in the morning or late afternoon, washed and spun to dry.

The sugared rose petals

Wooden pins to fasten the food for a clean/excellent presentation, the cake plate,  platters were washed.  The organisation is needed to get the food ready on time.  All the preparation always with lots of care in my kitchen, just the way I do it.

The List

Work well by following the list to be efficient, so I must!

Busy and Fun Morning.

It was fun to do the cooking, the baking and the preparations.

Beautiful and generous spread for the Biggest Morning Tea at our sports club, to raise money on an excellent couse. Everyone shines to share amazing savouries and sweets every year, and today was no exception, it was great!  Well Done Everyone!

We do it again next year.
