HARRY POTTERS MONSTROUS MONSTER BOOK CAKE

When my daughter graduated as a doctor, she had asked for a specific cake – Harry Potter’s monstrous monster book.

I cannot resist a challenge and I love to play with food, so I started the task of fulfilling her wish.

The cake was made with layers of vanilla-baked cake bottoms, vanilla cake cream, macaroons, raspberry mousse with strawberry yogurt and 1.5 kg of marzipan. Almonds were used for teeth and rose dust from Odense marzipan for the swabbing of tongue and mouth.

The cake is cast in a square cake tin and then coated with marzipan.
