James came to me after having had a work meeting and asked me how would I feel about making a Dark Knight cake for Rasem's (one of his clients) 5 year old son... I thought! Easy black suit, utility belt no worries eeeeasy!! And then he said: "oh it's an eggless cake, he is allergic to eggs, soy and sesame seeds!" bring it on! I had been asking for a challenge so it seemed like a good idea.
I did a practice run with a chocolate eggless cake recipe I found on the internet! Loved it! Delicious and soft and spongy! The way to test it also was to bring some to my vegetarian students so they could give me thumbs up! and they did! They all asked me for the recipe! Unfortunately the cake was too spongy so couldn't hold a tier on top to do the whole suit so we did a round one 10" and little individual cupcakes which apparently according to the reviews from Rasem were a hit! I covered them with basic chocolate buttercream and then topped them with black chocolate fondant and silver-ish batman logos stenciled on top... Very cool!!! Happy days! Love making kids birthday cakes! It is so rewarding!
The recipe was such a hit I have been sharing it all over the place... it is soooo easy to make... mix dry ingredients with wet ingredients! how easy is that!
