Pour the unprocessed cake inside the pan and put inside the oven for like 30-35 minutes (the bigger the pan, the lower the temperature).If oven is not available u can use gas or stove.First bring a round pot that must be bigger than the size of your Cake. Pour sand inside the pot and allow it to heat until it gets hot. Reduce the gas or stove to avoid it burning your cake,put the bakery pan containing the unprocessed cake and cover it. Leave it for 40 minutes and bring the pot down . Put the cake on a tray ready for icing.

  We have different types of icing like fundant icing, butter icing and loyal icing but I prefer Butter icing because its very easy to make and its easy to apply.
  How to ice your cake
  Add the butter(add the butter gradually because if you add it once it will be difficult to stir) and the icing into a bowl and stir it well untill it produces a foamy like paste. Add two spoons of vanilla extract, milk and stir properly. Trim down the cake into the desired shape you want it to be. I want my cake to be in shoe like shape so I have to trim it to that shape.
  
  Apply the icing gradually and carefully round the cake so as to make your cake neat and presentable.
  
  Use any type of colour you want and mix it with the icing. Apply the colours to different parts you want your cake to be. Then Refrigerate....Your cake is ready.. Yummy!!!!
