Joanna's Pink Heart of Hearts Cheesecake


By Table for 2.... or more (Visit website)




Joanna is the younger daughter of my eldest brother.
Last year I made a Present Cake, and this year,she requested a Heart of Hearts Cake.

My 2nd sister in law has a cake decoration book, bought just for ogling.
And my brother's daughters plus mine will definately look through this book whenever they can.
Trying to choose their next birthday cake, fantasizing how pretty each cake will be.
And Joanna saw this cake, being an absolute pink girl, she absolutely fell in love with this.

The original cake was made of ice cream, coated with white chocolate and topped with piped dyed white chocolate hearts, but I'm not going to do that. Joanna requested that I make a cheesecake inside but retained the looks of the cake. Kids!!!! They just know how to request.

With the looks fixed, cake type fixed, no headaches but also no room for creativity!!!
I made a Japanese Cotton Cheesecake, but with whipping cream instead of milk.
And to achieve the look, I had to find a way. I don't want white chocolate as I don't find it suitable for a soft cheesecake. So I made Swiss Meringue Buttercream for it in the end. And with some balance of cream, I made the hearts out of buttercream too, instead of piped white chocolates. No wastage. All used up.




So, on the day itself..
Sorry for the layout of the picture. Blogger won't let it stand upright.


 And the kids were excited when it's time to cut up the cake, all peeping in


Here's how it looked like inside. I did some marbling with the Japanese Cotton Cheesecake. My elder brother commented, it was very very good. He said, "I rarely take seconds, and now I am". Frankly I do find Japanese cotton cheesecake taste better and is more stable when made with whipping cream.


 My favourite part of the cake is the white squiggles used as trimming for the base. I just added that after I had excess of uncoloured cream, and I have to say, it's was the prettiest part.  The pipings of the hearts were hedious, ugly, squirmish and uneven. But I passed the kid's test. She smiled from ear to ear when she saw it.
I wonder what will next year's challenge be.
Now that the kids are growing up, they will start to ask.
Not that they'll take anything I make for them.
Hahaha!!
