👨‍🍳 How to Make the Venom Cake

  1. Separate egg yolks and whites. Divide the sugar equally and beat the whites until stiff (about 5 minutes).

  2. Mix yolks with sugar until it dissolves, then add warm water.

  3. Add flour, starch, vanilla, and baking powder. Fold in the beaten whites slowly.

  4. Pour into a 22 cm cake tin and bake at 180°C (356°F) for about 40 minutes.

  5. For the filling: Whip the heavy cream and whipped cream powder together. Mix with melted chocolate.

  6. Slice the cake into layers. Soak each layer lightly with milk and spread the filling and strawberries between them.

  7. Cover the whole cake with a thin layer of cream.

  8. Roll out black fondant and cover the cake. Use white and red fondant to cut out Venom’s eyes, tongue, and sharp teeth. Stick with honey water.
