I share with you my birthday
cake
for this year 2012.
This is the first time I
prepared
a Marzipan Cake.
To be honest with you, I was always
scared of preparing a Marzipan cake,
I was wrong, this cake is very very
simple,
all you need to do is to follow the steps
in the video.
I will give you very important
tips
while looking at the pictures.
First of all, in order to have a fluffy cake
you need to sift the flour several
times.
Grind the almonds very fine,so that
when you squeeze the paste with your fingers, oil comes out.
When you put the dough in the
mold,
tap it on the surface to release
the air.
As you can see on the picture,
you will
get a golden and a fluffy cake,
perfect for Marzipan cake to succeed.
Here is my toy of the week, just place the cake inside and cut in several layers, up
to 8 layers.
You get equal layers.
It makes life so
easy (for me 
).

As I mentioned in the
video, you can
leave the batter as it is, if you
do not want to add chocolate.
It is very important to spread
the marzipan on
powdered sugar, because it sticks very easily
on your working surface.
You should move it from time to time.
You can do better than me, if
you
have a plastic spatula like this.
I don't have it and I never thought
I would need it. I'll buy it soon inchaallah.
Photo taken from internet to give you
an idea.
Do not limit yourself, use
what you have at home.
Let me tell you something, when I usually
start
making a birthday cake, I never
imagine
how my cake is going to look like, especially the decoration. I began working with what
I had around the house so that I wouldn't be
wasting too much by buying things
just to make one cake and then
discard the rest .
Come on friends ! it's easy,
follow
the steps on the video, take
pictures
and send them to my
address.
Thank you for your visits and your
comments
they always make me happy 
.
