welcome to how to cook that i am ann reardontoday we are making all your favorite apps on a much requested ipad cake.i will show you two different ways to make the ipad so let me know in the comments whichone you prefer which one looks better. firstly though we are going to make our applebox and to make that you'll need one and a half quantities of the rich chocolate cakerecipe and bake that in two trays. the recipe videos and everything that you'll need tomake the ipad cake are all on this weeks blog post and i'll link to that in the descriptionbelow the video. once your cakes have cooled level them outand then cut them in half. then place a small amount of frosting onto the cake board, followedby the first layer of cake. cover that in

frosting then add two more layers of cake.so you'll have one layer spare. now trim the edges to make that as straightand box like as you can get it. then cover the whole thing in a thin layerof frosting. this coat catches all the crumbs. i am using mixture of the american buttercreamand white chocolate ganache here and again those recipes are all on the website. place that in the fridge and once the frostinghas firmed up then we want to cover it in another layer of frosting, take your timewhen you're putting this one on. get the edges as straight as you can, get the corners ascrisp as you can. when you put the fondant over the top it willreflect what you've done underneath.

then place it back in the fridge to firm up.now take some water on a pastry brush and brush the cake, this just makes it a littlebit damp so the fondant will stick to it. roll out your white fondant and then liftit up and drape it over the cake. pinch it in at the corners together and usescissors to trim off the excess and then rub it with your finger.now to get those tight edges you will need to use a fondant smoother to smooth it outand also massage it towards the edges. you can make the front of the ipad screenout of a printed icing sheet or out of fondant. the printed icing sheets can be purchasedonline, they don't taste great even though they say they are made out of icing they arenot sweet. but they are good for apps that

have detailed logos.to make the fondant ones firstly we need to make an app cutter. to do that decide howbig your apps are going to be it is going to be then take some aluminum flashing andfold it around something round like a pen to make that rounded corner shape that allapps have. repeat that with the next corner each time lining it up with the distance youwant the sides to be so they are all about the same. once you get back to the beginningtrim the first side to about half the distance and fold up the last side to overlap it. trimit off and use some tape to hold it into place. now for your favorite apps you guys had somany requests we couldn't do all of them but here is some of them starting at the bottomwe have

dumb ways to die.to make this one roll out some background colour. for all of your backgrounds use twoskewers either side of your fondant and then when your rolling it so that the rolling pinrests on them and you get a uniform thickness for all of our buttons. then cut it out usingthe cutter that we made. then roll out a oval of blue and squash it and using a little bitof water add it to the square. trim off that excess then take balls of orange really littleones and then roll them into tear drop shapes and add them for fire hair.dumb ways to die was a viral youtube video made by metro trains in australia promotingtrain safety. it was so popular that it has its own game and various other things nowas well and you can play the game and try
