The Secret To My Cavity Cake; here’s how I make it! This is for all those who have messaged me and waited patiently for a video on how I made the cavity I’m addicted to making, that fun idea that came to me a while ago. Quite a genius idea if I may say so myself ♥!
What is a cavity cake you might ask? It’s a term I coined! Think of it as the opposite of an entremet perhaps, a cake with a filling vs a cake in a filling. It’s a fun concept, much simpler than you can imagine and it works well with all cakes, with eggs or eggless. It’s a simple technique if you watch the video, and the result is quite neat.
Cavity cakes are colourful, they are fun, they offer a great surprise when you slice them AND they’re simple! Oh and of course they’re a great change from the same old boring cakes we see everyday..
Think about it – colours, layers, flavours, textures – if you can think it, you can do it!.
While thinking of different ideas for my feed on Instagram, I came up with this idea one day, not sure if it would work. Stamped out the centre of an eggless cake with a slightly smaller steel cutter and I thought that was quite neat. Now for the base. I sliced a layer of the stamped out bit and voila, a cavity cake was created. Just a couple of graded steel cake rings is what I needed!
Mango Saffron Shrikhand Cavity Cake was the first cavity cake I ever made, and it was love at first bite! This wasn’t just a simple layered cake. This delicious eggless cake had a cavity filled and then topped with the most indulgent and luxurious saffron shrikhand. That just meant more deliciousness in every bite!
The first time I posted a cavity cake on Instagram, it caused much happiness and a bit of a stir among my followers. To be honest, the level of interest caught me off guard. I was flooded with questions both on the post and in direct messages.
Each time I shared a new cavity cake there was renewed interest, more questions, requests for a how to cut such a neat cavity video etc. It was time to shoot The Secret To My Cavity Cake and here it is on the blog. It’s been recreated several times, with cakes with eggs and without and the feedback has been great.
It’s always nice to get feedback and it’s mostly been around two things – how easy the process is after watching the video, and what a surprise everyone got when the first slice was cut! I agree. Each time I slice a cavity cake, I’m wait eagerly to see the inside, the cavity. It’s always fascinating, the only kind of cavity you’re going to love!
I’ll share this delicious version of the cavity cake next week, so please stay tuned! It’s a layered cake. Three layers fill the cavity – dark chocolate, vanilla bean white chocolate and strawberry jelly from scratch. I always have frozen berries in my freezer but you could use fresh ones too. The recipe is a simple one bowl eggless sponge, and the way to make the cavity is as simple as it looks. Can’t wait to share it!
Do check out several different versions on my reels on Instagram, a few here on the blog.
