I went to Apple Pie bakery cafe as usual, but today I noticed something interesting in the display case. I was like what did they do now?!?
When I read the sign ''Red Velvet Pillow cake'', I thought it was a real pillow with cake hidden somewhere inside of it or something, then as I looked closer, I realized THAT was the actual cake!
I have never seen anything like it before. Now that part comes when you ask yourselves, how do they do that?? WELL, I hate to say it, but it's quite simple if you're familiar with the baking and pastry principles. It is exactly as it says on the sign; there is a pillow-shaped mold that has been coated with chocolate so you get a top and a bottom shell. Then, you cut out your cake base and fill it with coconut filling, making sure it fits nicely in the shell. You take the other side of the shell and close it. Once that's done, take the red velvet spray (another special piece of equipment) and spray!
That's how I see it, but I will double check and let you know if there is something else to it. I have to see how the sugar diamonds were made, but I am 99% sure it's meringue...
