Hello everyone! Welcome to GomS' Easy Baking.
Today's video features adorable mini lunch box cakes that are perfect for gifting!
I've prepared three delicious flavors: Strawberry, Oreo, and Chocolate Cake.
These minisized cakes are hasslefree to make and excellent for presents.
I've simplified the process using minimal tools and easy steps, so even beginners can bake with ease.
One of the trickiest parts of cake making is the icing (decorating the cake's exterior with cream) as it can be challenging and timeconsuming.
So, I've made sure that these cakes look beautiful even if you're not an expert in icing.
And of course, they taste fantastic! I dare say, even better than what you'll find in most bakeries
Though cake baking involves several steps, don't be intimidated.
Just follow the video slowly and you'll do great.

* Baking Tips *
1. If you want to make only one cake, halve the measurements.
2. Depending on the finish, you can get 45 cake layers.
3. It's better to prepare the cake layers a day ahead for room temperature maturing.
4. Be cautious not to overwhip the cream as it can easily separate.
Whip to a nice volume and then finish at a low speed.
5. Keep the cream cold during whipping to prevent separation.
Place the cream in the freezer 30 minutes before use or use ice packs.
6. If whipping cream is challenging, add 1020% nondairy whipping cream.
7. Keep the icing process short and quick. The more you touch it, the more the cream tends to spoil.
8. Cool the ganache thoroughly before combining with the cream to prevent separation.
