Cake for 1 year old
Description
The baking is simple and quick. For the 1-year-old birthday cake, I made a basic sponge cake batter (you can use the "chocolate with boiling water" recipe, but it's more hassle). Take eggs, flour, sugar, baking powder, whisk and bake—this gives you cake layers. You can also use store-bought ones. I sometimes make the fondant myself, but I've realized that store-bought is much better and more reliable. The main thing is to make a rich, thick cream under the fondant so it doesn't spread later.

I'll add, before I forget: after each step, put the cake in the refrigerator, otherwise it might melt during decoration. Use the remaining fondant to make various decorations and you can also form the name.
