Hi,
I’ve used ready made cake mix here and it is baked in a teddy bear cake pan.You can buy it from walmart, any Michaels store etc.See the link here
Then i’ve covered the cake with a light coating of buttercream icing (see Wilton recipe here).
And then piped stars all over with white and chocolate buttercream icing..you can learn to pipe stars here..
Hope this helps,and let me know if you need any more help with it..Happy baking..

Wow! Annita, it’s so wonderful. It’s very tempting. Now you too have become a baking expert like Archana, eh? Nicely done. Very good, Annita. I don’t have much patience like you do but I’ll have to definitely try this one out this month. I’m sure my son would love it too. Thanks Annita.
Oh..pls don’t compare me with Archana,Rg…I’m far behind from her…I dont think i’ll ever be able to make cakes as perfect as hers…
Anyway really happy to see the comment,rg…Thank you very much..Try this out,only thing you need is patience here.

annita, my hubby bought me this cute teddy pan from Michaels. Are the pastry bags and star shaped tips etc available there too or at any other place? One more question…. can this be made with your buttercream/chocolate cake recipes instead of store bought ones? I wanna try from scratch.
Thanks a lot annita.
Yes Rg,you’ll get those in michaels itself.And you can use that buttercream/chocolate cake recipe…If you are making chocolate cake from scratch,be careful while taking it out from the pan..Don’t break the cake.Also I suggest you to use Wilton cake release instead of lining the pan with butter and flour..this will help you to get neat edges without any crumbs..This is also available in Michaels..Happy baking…and don’t forget to let us know about it.

iLuvIndianFood said
Thank you Anita for the recipe….
Just few question…. I heard that cake can be made without microwave oven… I tried to cook it but most of the time it turns to be hard…. Why….
Secondly, the pipes u discussed, are they easily available in the market….
Also, can you please post a icing recipe means which require less things…. There are many things which will be difficult to find in a market….
Please reply….
Thanks in advance….
Yeah..i always make cakes in my electric oven only,but you can make cakes in microwave too..but look out for microwave cake recipes,that ‘ll be better.
I think the cake is getting hard bcoz of the baking powder/baking soda..
“Too much baking powder can cause the batter to be bitter tasting. It can also cause the batter to rise rapidly and then collapse. (i.e. The air bubbles in the batter grow too large and break causing the batter to fall.) Cakes will have a coarse, fragile crumb with a fallen center. Too little baking powder results in a tough cake that has poor volume and a compact crumb.” -Quoting from JoyOfBaking.com
Yeah you can get the piping tubes from Walmart..Otherwise check Michaels,Hobby lobby etc..they’ll carry almost all the baking accessories..
And for the icing recipe i’ve already posted a buttercream recipe.(https://deepann.wordpress.com/2006/11/20/buttercream-icing/) ,it has only less ingredients.
Thanks
Annita

the cake looks great and ive hired a teddy bear tin for next week and i am going to try pipe the same as you did, any tips to point out for me ? also the sponge, did you cut it in half and having a layer of buttercream in the centre ?
well done for a first time try too.
kelly .
Nothing kelly..Its so simple..you just have to be a little patient,thats it…Actually i’ve prepared 2 cakes,levelled them..and applied buttercream between the layers.

What an inspiration! The cake is beyond beautiful and so, so cute. I’m going to make a similar one when my son turns two in July.
Just wondering how did you make the eyes, nose and mouth?
I’m amazed by your skills!
Leena.
