I made this Baptism Cross Cake for my cousin’s daughter.
This cake is a double layer french vanilla. I iced it with homemade buttercream icing. I also used the buttercream between layers.
I baked the cakes in a dark coated pan and let them cool on the counter for about two hours. After cooling, I cut the shape of the cake out while in the pan. After icing the center of the cake I shaved the sides of the cross to make sure they were even.
The icing is tinted with red food coloring for the flowers, green for the vines and yellow for the border. I used a Wilton’s star tip (#18) to tip the cake.
This cake served 45 people.
WHAT SIZE PAN DID YOU USE TO BAKE THIS?
