“Soccer field” cake for Father’s Day
The 19th of March is Father’s Day, a day in which we can celebrate our dads and take advantage of this occasion to prepare a delicious and spectacular dessert: the “soccer field” cake. If your dad loves soccer, he’ll surely appreciate this cake, which is not only scenographic, but also very tasty.
Ingredients:
- 14 oz marzipan or plastic chocolate
- 4 slices of rectangular sponge cake
- Strawberry jam
- Marsala wine or a similar liquor
- Powdered sugar
- Green food color
- Food jelly
Preparation:
- Prepare the jam syrup: in a small pot, heat up a couple of tablespoons of jam, a tablespoon of marsala wine and 5 tablespoons of water, and mix it up until it becomes syrupy.
- With the syrup, drench the sponge cake layers and put them one on top of the other. You’ll create the base of the soccer field.
- Once you’ve created the base, add the food color to the marzipan (or use a colored plastic chocolate). You can shape the marzipan on a surface with a pinch of powdered sugar (and not flour).
- Use a rolling pin to flatten and spread the marzipan or plastic chocolate until you create a rectangle big enough to cover the cake surface. If there’s any excess marzipan you can cut it off with a knife.
- Using the jelly, draw the soccer field lines.
- The final touch: you can add players, a ball and football goals using the marzipan. Alternatively, you can buy them in a specialized pastry shop.
