To carry out our decoration, the first step is always to make the meringue, and of course to have a previous sponge cake. We will use the following materials.
Materiales a utilizar. // Materials to be used.
- Batidora.
- Bol para mezclar.
- Espátula.
- Colorantes en polvo.
- Azúcar 350gr.
- 4 Huevos.
- Cucharas medidoras.
- Esencia (una cucharada).

- Mixing bowl.
- Spatula.
- Dyes.
- Sugar.
- 5 eggs.

In a saucepan add the 350gr of sugar, cup and a half of water and place over medium heat, separate the egg whites and the yellow ones (in this case we will only use the whites) and add them in a bowl (whites).
When the syrup makes smaller bubbles and a thread point, remove from heat and let stand for about 5 minutes, begin to beat the egg whites until stiff peaks, incorporate in a steady stream the syrup, beat for about 3 minutes, add a teaspoon of cream of tartar and a teaspoon of essence of your choice (in this case we use essence of natha) and continue beating for about 8 minutes or until the meringue makes peaks.
Once the meringue is firm we add it in our piping bag, without adding any color, we will do that later. Then we open our cake in 2 parts, with the white meringue we place a border on the edges so that the chocolate does not spill when placing the other layers, we place its supports (this is so that the cake does not move).
Once the cake already has its layers of filling, and its supports; with the white meringue we cover the upper cake, smooth it and pass the pastry comb. On the lower part we make some spirals, these are made by slightly squeezing the sleeve placing a point of meringue and turning our hand, to cause a spiral effect, we carry out this process until the cake is covered.
Ya tenemos nuestro pastel cubierto con el merengue todo en blanco, con el atomizador le agregamos color rojo a todo el pastel. Ya el pastel todo rojo procedemos a pegar los topper que realizamos en goma Eva brillante y normal, estas imágenes alusivas a la película Miraculous la tome de internet.
We already have our cake covered with meringue all in white, with the atomizer we add red color to the whole cake. Once the cake is all red, we proceed to glue the topper that we made with shiny and normal eva gum, these images alluding to the movie Miraculous I took from the internet.
