For non-Brits or non-people-who-have-lived-in-Britain, there are these amazing little cakes called French Fancies. In fact there are so amazing, a couple years ago the company started making giant French Fancy cakes.
It was my colleague’s birthday on Wednesday, and his partner came up with the grand idea of making our own giant French Fancy, because you know anything I make is ALWAYS superior to the mass marketed versions.
So here is our 3-part photoset of making a giant French Fancy. H/T to Mel Mel and P for advising us on how to get the ‘best hump’ by mixing the cakey bits we cut off with buttercream for perfect shape and stability under the fondant.
NOMSILICIOUS, ISN’T IT?
