French Toast Shaped Cake--Need Ideas
Decorating By sweetchef Updated 10 May 2007 , 1:25am by steffla
I have a client that ordered a cake shaped like a big piece of french toast (apparently her friend's nickname is French Toast). I'm cutting a 12" square to look like one big piece of bread (I would prefer triangles, but that's what she requested). Can you guys help me brainstorm for the following:
1. She wants syrup dripping down the sides with a pool at the bottom...any ideas what to use for syrup (that still tastes right)?
2. I need a cinnamon sugar look...maybe brown petal dust?
I think I would see if it were ok to do two pieces, one on top of the other but offset a bit. Since you cant do the triangles this might make it look more like real french toast.
for the syrup I would do a caramel sauce
and I would really use a cinnamon sugar if you can make a cake that would go well with the flavor. Otherwise maybe some very very finely ground nuts( ground to a powder) mixed in with some dust in the right shade
hth, please post when you finish, sounds like a fun cake!
