Cake
Description
Delicious baked treat for the whole family. Bright, beautiful, and incredibly tasty—this is the "Captain America" cake. I make this dessert very often for my family, and my child has gotten used to treating his friends to it on his birthday.

Step 1
1. I baked the cake layers myself to make them colorful—American style. I added bright blue food coloring to one portion of the sponge batter and red to the other. I poured them into two separate pans and baked in a preheated oven at 170 degrees until fully done.

2. After baking, let the sponge cake cool slightly, and only then remove it from the pan. I use springform round pans, which I always line with parchment paper before baking and grease with vegetable oil.

3. After that, I cut each cake layer in half and spread cream between them. You can use any cream you like with sponge cake. I've prepared it several times in different ways: sour cream (sour cream and sugar) and meringue cream. Both go perfectly with the cake layers.

4. After spreading cream on all the cake layers, level it evenly across the surface. I do this with a metal spatula.

5. Now we proceed to the decoration: fill a piping bag with frosting, adding red food coloring to one part and blue to the other. Now create lines around the circle.

6. Take a toothpick and draw lines from the center to the edges. This creates a spiderweb pattern. That's it, now put our cake in the refrigerator for 7-8 hours.
