In a saucepan add 2 cups of sugar per cup and a half of water, place over medium heat, separate the egg whites and the yellow ones (in this case we will only use the egg whites) and add them in a bowl (egg whites).

When the syrup makes smaller bubbles and a thread point, remove from heat and let stand for approximately 5 minutes, begin to beat the egg whites until stiff peaks, incorporate in a steady stream the syrup, beat for approximately 3 minutes, add a teaspoon of cream of tartar and a teaspoon of essence of your choice and continue beating for approximately 8 minutes or until the meringue makes peaks.

Add the meringue in our piping bag to start covering the cake.

Abrimos nuestro pastel en 3 partes iguales para agregar relleno, con el merengue creamos una barrera en la orilla del bizcocho para evitar derrames del mismo, medimos y cortamos los soportes a la medida de la altura del pastel y se los colocamos haciendo referencia en los cuatro puntos cardinales.

We open our cake in 3 equal parts to add filling, with the meringue we create a barrier on the edge of the cake to avoid spills, we measure and cut the supports to the height of the cake and we place them making reference to the four cardinal points.

Once our pastries are filled, we begin to cover the top. We smooth and pass a pastry comb to give it texture.

At the bottom we do the same procedure, where each cake ends we make decorations such as shells.

With the blue dye atomizer, we add color to all the bottom part.

With the atomizer of the yellow coloring we add color to the whole part of the center.

With the dye atomizer we add fuchsia color to all the top part.

And now we have our cake with tropical colors ready, we add fruit and flower toppers for a more personalized and beautiful presentation.
