My boyfriend asked if I would make a cake for his friend's birthday, which isn't actually until next week but we're on holiday so he wanted to take it this week. I asked what to do and he said just a simple sponge and nothing too sweet. So I did my usual vanilla sponge cake split across two tins and then filled with jam. No buttercream because even I think buttercream is too sweet. But I figured a little bit of icing wouldn't hurt. The decoration is inspired by a Mitchell and Webb, sketch: the Numberwang Code. The friend uses the name 'Murderwang' on their society forum, which is inspired by this sketch. Thus I translated it onto a cake. I did the red first and let it set before I did the white.
It went down really well apparently, so I am very pleased.
