Cake
Description
Homemade baked goods for tea. Traditionally, such cakes can be made with any cake layers and cream you prefer. A sponge cake base with a cottage cheese filling works perfectly, for example, but feel free to experiment to your taste. Decorating the cake is a creative process—there's no right or wrong here. Use the original picture as a guide and try to replicate all the elements on your cake as closely as possible. I'll show you one of the possible options. Serve cooled or slightly warm.

7. While the cake is setting, you can prepare the wheels. It's most convenient to use cookies as the base, but you can also use sponge cake. Make disks from a circle of fondant, and paint the "tires" with black food coloring. Let the wheels dry thoroughly.
