Bollywood Dancer Cake Modelling Tutorial
Bollywood dancer cake. In this tutorial I show you how to make a Bollywood dancer doll cake that I made for a charity event.
Time wise it took me at least 2 days to finish this one, so condensing it down into a 20 min video wasn't easy!
I use polystyrene at the bottom below the cake as I didn't need much cake in mine and I wanted it to be quite tall. If you want more cake, simply use more cake instead.
If you use polystyrene or any other none edible products, make sure they are kept seperate from the cake and do not come in to contact with the cake itself.

Method:
Cream together the butter and sugar, then beat in the eggs and vanilla essence. Once smooth and creamy, fold in the flour.

Beat the ingredients together.
Chocolate Ganache Recipe:
To make chocolate ganache you can simply melt chocolate with double cream in a glass bowl above a pan of boiling water ( I use the hob to heat the water, but be sure to turn this right down once the chocolate begins to melt so it doesn't burn). I use the ratio of 3 to 1 chocolate to double cream
