But now I am craving for some thing as simple and easy as this. My mom adds danyache kut to these ladoos, maybe as an attempt that I eat without any fuss. I love love dane and gul, staple food in the ghar ghar play.. Too many things on my India list now. Play Kitchen for munchkin with dane and gul, next winter sees me playing house house with my son, is it too weird???<br />Also loved the cake, Just one suggestion( PLZZ Don't mind), next time you want to make rosettes as a border start with 12 o'clock position then do in 3,6, 9, helps in spacing them better.<br />Love Ash.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11926168857944333545noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31821541.post-84514698030506421682013-04-19T10:05:19.488-04:002013-04-19T10:05:19.488-04:00Looks amazing !

F...Archana, thank you so much for your kind words. <br />For the whipped cream frosting, I do not use any stabilizers, mainly as it involves using gelatin. Some people use Jello pudding powder, you can try that, but need to adjust sugar in that case.<br />For my part, I just place the bowl, that I plan on using and the beaters in the freezer for 10-15 mins. before I make the frosting.<br />Alternately, if u have ice cubes at home, fill a big bowl, half way (or less) with ice cubes and place a smaller bowl on the ice cubes and whip the cream. <br /><br />In the cake (above) I just made rosettes, these are very easy to make and hold shape, but if you want to make flowers, imho, buttercream is a better option.
