Time 2h45m

Number Of Ingredients 22

250g unsalted butter
200g dark chocolate (70% cocoa solids)
350g light soft brown sugar
200g self-raising flour
1 tsp bicarbonate of soda
½ tsp salt
4 large eggs
300ml tub sour cream
100ml strong hot coffee (double shot of espresso)
250g fun size bag of mini Mars Bars
397g can Nestlé Carnation Caramel
1 tsp flaky sea salt
400g unsalted butter , softened at room temperature
800g icing sugar
2 tsp vanilla bean paste
4 tbsp whole milk
black, blue, purple and green food colouring gel
navy and silver lustre dust
edible metallic pearlescent white paint
silver pearl balls
thin paintbrush
cake scraper

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 180c/160 fan/gas mark 4. Grease and bottom line two deep 20cm spring form cake tins. Using the microwave on high, melt the butter with the chocolate in 30 second bursts until glossy and smooth. Alternatively melt in a bowl over a pan of simmering water. Leave to cool slightly.
  • Combine the sugar and flour in a large bowl, getting rid of any lumps with your fingertips, then stir in the bicarb and salt. In a separate jug beat the eggs with the sour cream then pour into the dry ingredients and whisk until well combined. Scrape in the cooled chocolate mixture and beat until you have a smooth chocolatey batter. Stir in the hot coffee then divide the mixture between the tins and bake for 40-45mins until a skewer inserted in the centre comes out clean. Leave to cool in the tins for 10 mins then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • While the cakes are cooling make the buttercream. Using a food mixer or an electric whisk beat the butter with the icing sugar, vanilla and a pinch of salt for 10 mins until very light and fluffy, then whisk in the milk. Set aside.
  • Slice each of the cooled cakes into two. Break the Mars bars into small pieces and stir the sea salt through the caramel. Sandwich the cakes together using a 1/3 of the caramel and Mars between each layer, leaving the top layer free for icing.
  • Crumb coat the cake completely in a layer of white buttercream then pop in the fridge to set. Meanwhile divide the remaining butter cream between 4 bowls, and colour each with the black, blue, green and purple food colouring.
  • Using a palette knife dot the cake at random with a little of each coloured buttercream then using the cake scraper go around the sides to blend the colours together and smooth the cake. Keep layering different colours of buttercream until you have your desired galaxy appearance.
  • Dot areas with the navy and silver lustre dust so that you create a moon beam effect around the cake. Using the paintbrush and white pearlescent paint, draw clusters of stars and dot in silver balls, being as random or as coordinated as you and your galaxy like.

Yield 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 chocolate cake mixes, 2 boxes, prepared according to package
2 cups butter, softened
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 tablespoon milk
6 cups powdered sugar
1 ¼ cups water
1 ½ cups sugar
15 oz sweetened condensed milk, 1 can
15 sheets gelatin
26 oz white chocolate, chopped, over 30% cocoa butter
black food coloring
navy blue food coloring
light blue food coloring
purple food coloring
pink food coloring
white food coloring

Steps:

  • Prepare the cakes according to the package, or use your favorite cake recipe.
  • To make the buttercream, mix the butter, vanilla, milk, and powdered sugar in a bowl with a hand mixer.
  • Once the cakes are baked and cooled, place one cake on a turntable. If you don't have one, you can use a plate. Slice the top off the cakes to create a flat surface.
  • Place a large dollop of the buttercream on the cake and spread to create an even middle layer of frosting.
  • Place the second cake over the layer of buttercream.
  • Frost the entire cake to create the crumb layer, creating a smooth surface.
  • Place the cake in the freezer to keep cold.
  • For the glaze, boil the water, sugar, and condensed milk in a pot for 1 minute, then remove from heat.
  • Bloom the gelatin in 8 cups (2 liters) of cold water for 5 minutes, then wring the gelatin sheets of excess water and mix into the sugar mixture.
  • Pour the sugar mixture over the chocolate, letting it sit for 2-3 minutes to allow the chocolate to soften.
  • Using an immersion blender, carefully blend the chocolate and the liquid, making sure that you are not blending in air bubbles by lifting up the blender too high.
  • Pour the glaze through a sieve into a large bowl to remove any excess bubbles.
  • Separate the glaze into 5 different bowls (one medium-sized bowl and four smaller bowls).
  • Color the biggest bowl of glaze with black and navy blue food coloring, stir the coloring with the glaze until the color is distributed evenly.
  • In the next bowl, add the navy blue food coloring and stir.
  • In the next bowl, add the lighter blue food coloring and stir.
  • In the next bowl, add the purple food coloring and stir.
  • In the next bowl, add the pink food coloring and stir.
  • When you are ready to use the glaze, make sure each one is around 90-96°F (32-35°C). Microwave if necessary. Pour the colored glazes back into the biggest bowl of black and blue glaze. Swirl them gently with a spoon.
  • Place the cake on a stand over a sheet tray to catch any excess glaze. Carefully pour the glaze over the cake.
  • Dip a brush into the white food coloring and fling it onto the cake to create stars.
  • Enjoy!
