The dome cake is the It lady of muffins; she’s fully distinctive and impeccably styled. You’ve doubtless seen one in your social feed, bedecked with flowers and seemingly shrouded in thriller. Although dome muffins are sometimes proven off of their completed glory, the secrets and techniques of their making are seldom revealed. Think about them declassified now. It’s certainly not a bit of cake, however in the event you like an clever mission (this includes stacking layers of varying-size cake) and obsessing over particulars, comply with alongside. It’s held along with a whipped peanut butter filling and completed with a strawberry cream; we promise it’s definitely worth the elbow grease. You’ll be able to at all times break up the mission over a day or two to make it extra manageable.
Whereas most dome muffins are made in a specialty hemisphere cake pan, this one is assembled in a big mixing bowl for ease and accessibility. Select the roundest one in your shelf for probably the most rotund dome. For a brilliant clean, professional-looking cake, end the cake by working a strip of acetate over the curved floor (outlined under). Acetate sheets are simply discovered on-line and in craft provide shops and come in useful for constructing tall layer muffins.
No matter flowers and foliage you employ, examine along with your florist that they’re unhazardous. And at all times take away them earlier than reducing and serving the cake.
