Birthday Drip Cake
Ingredients
-
80g Double Cream
-
150g White Chocolate
-
Gel Food Colouring
Directions
This was Drip Cake I did for a friend a few weeks ago. I used the same recipe as I used for the Watercolour Cake I did for my parents birthdays but added a pink drip and a Kinder theme. In this post I’ll show you how to do the coloured drip.
To start with your cake needs to be really cold so if it's not already in the fridge, put it in now.
Heat the double cream in a saucepan over a medium heat until bubbling. Pour over the finely chopped white chocolate and let sit for a minute before mixing. If the chocolate does not melt you can add a little more hot cream.
Add the food colouring a drop at a time. The mixture cools very quickly and starts to set so work quickly (If it becomes too hard you can add more hot cream).
Take your cake out of the fridge and spoon a little of the white chocolate near the edge of the cake. Use the back of the spoon to push it over the edge. Repeat around the whole perimeter of the cake. Once you have the drips you want, fill in the top of the cake. Add your decorations.

This is such a great way of doing it, I am going to give it a go.
I’ve never tried making a drip cake but it’s something I’d like to do soon. You’re made it sound really easy which is great!
This was the first successful drip cake I’ve done and this method and recipe worked well (and the person the cake was for said the drip was really tasty!)
I am horrible at cake decorating I really don’t have the touch but you have tempted me to have a go at one of these.
