Hello Everyone~!! (*^ω^*)

I'm back with a brand new video on my 2nd channel~!
I was invited to make and bake a Shaun The Sheep cake with the wonderful Nancy Birtwhistle (Great British Bake Off's 2014 Winner!) in London~!!♪

I never thought I would be able to make a cake so yummy and fun as this~!! ☆ﾐ

I really hope you enjoy this video~! ☆ﾐ

☆☆☆☆☆ RECIPE ☆☆☆☆☆

★Ingredients for the cake★

•260g Soft Margarine
•260g Caster Sugar
•4 eggs
•260g Self raising flour
•2 tsp baking powder
•Finely grated zest of 2 lemons and 1 tsp lemon extract
•2 x 23cm cake tins greased and lined

Cream together the margarine and sugar until light and fluffy then add the eggs one at a time followed by the lemon zest and extract. Fold in the flour and baking powder then divide between the two tins.

Bake at 175 degrees for 35-40 minutes until pale golden in colour and springy to the touch.

Turn out onto cooling racks and leave until completely cold.

★Ingredients for the filling and crumb coat ★

•150g butter (soft at room temperature)
•450g Icing sugar
•Juice of the 2 lemons (above)
•1 tsp lemon extract
•100ml double cream

Cream the butter then add the icing sugar gradually until you have the consistency of bread crumbs. Add the lemon juice and extract and double cream and whisk until light and fluffy.

Use half of the filling to sandwich the cake together then the other half to apply a smooth crumb coat.

Chill ♡

★Ingredients for the sheep characters & covering the cake ★

•1kg white fondant
•Green, black and yellow (only one pot of each – not one per person) food colour gel (not liquid)
•125g Black fondant
•Few strands spaghetti

Drip green colour gel into 500g of white fondant and knead until the fondant is grass green. Roll the fondant out and cover the cake and then cut around for neat edges.

Hand cut flowers from the remaining fondant and create white rectangular balls for the body and head of Shaun. Using a brush or scourer give Shaun’s body some texture by patting him lightly. Then create arms, legs, ears and eyes from the black fondant, using spaghetti to keep them in place♪
