How to Make 15 Year Cake: Step by Step
Making a 15 year old cake at home is a big challenge, but it’s perfectly possible, even more so with this easy recipe that we’ll teach you. We are going to teach sponge cake dough because it is more structured and tasty. In this recipe you will make a 1-floor cake decorated with American paste, but depending on the number of guests for the party, you can repeat this whole process and make other floors. The tip is to use different sized hoops like the ones in the photo.
Another important tip is that if you choose to build 2 floors or more, it is essential to place a support stool between one floor and another. The white makes the cake firm, without risk of falling apart. This accessory is sold at party supply stores and specialty confectionery stores.
