Decorating Cupcakes #10:  Cute Monste...

I used store bought pound cake because I have never been able to achieve the same texture with any homemade pound cake recipe. You can you any cake recipe for this, but a denser cake is better.  Cake mix cake is usually too delicate and tender to be able to cut it into squares with nice sharp edges and few crumbs.

Cut the brown edges from your cake and cut into 1 inch slabs, squaring off the edges as much as possible.  Cut the slabs into two thin pieces. Spread your desired filling (I used raspberry jam) onto one of the halves and then place second half over top like a sandwich.  Cut into 1x1" squares. Place cake cubes on a wire rack over a cookie sheet.

Cover cakes with poured fondant icing and allow to dry on the rack.  Remove the coated cakes with a spatula, gently scraping off any excess frosting.  Decorate as desired.

**Notes about Poured Fondant Icing***

I made a half recipe and did not have enough to coat all of my cakes without having to scrape the drippings and re-heat them.  This whole scraping procedure is MESSY and time consuming.

I recommend making the full recipe even though it seems to make a TON of icing.   This full recipe would be enough to coat approximately 18- 1x1x1" cakes ONCE without having to scrape and reheat the drippings.
There would be enough to double coat  approx. 18 of them if you scraped and re-heated the drippings of a full recipe after the first coat.

Full Recipe:

9 cups icing (powdered) sugar
1/2 cup corn syrup (heated until hot in microwave)
1 cup (4oz) melted white candy melts or white chocolate
1/2 to 1 cup hot water (enough to make a pourable texture)
2 tsp flavouring (clear vanilla extract or almond extract)
Food colour (optional)

Combine the powdered sugar, corn syrup and white candy melts with an electric mixer.  Add enough water while blending to make a pourable consistency, add flavouring and colouring if desired.
USE IMMEDIATELY.  If the icing cools too much it will thicken, the best way to make it pourable again is to heat it in the microwave until the correct pourable texture is achieved.

Pour over mini cakes allowing excess to drip off.
