Hey guys, it's Ro welcome to another nerdy
Nummies, I got so many requests to make something from the video game Zelda breath of the wild
so that's exactly what I'm gonna do today
today we are gonna be making the Royal Family's fruit cake recipe. You receive this quest from a man whose
Ancestor was a chef for the royal family
And it is his a lifelong dream to taste one of his family's recipes so we got to sneak into the castle
Spank this guy with a leaf if you want, go into the library and find the royal family's recipe look at all these recipes
om nomnom Then go back to the beautiful man and bake the cake
And I thought it was the perfect recipe
Because it's a fruitcake and I absolutely love making baked goods with fresh fruit in them
It is delicious. So today we are gonna be making the royal family's fruitcake
Let's get started the things you'll need to make this fruitcake will be 6 eggs 1 cup of sugar plus an additional
Quarter cup of sugar half a cup of water ,half a cup of oil ,2 cups of all-purpose flour ,1 teaspoon of almond extract
1 and a half teaspoons of vanilla extract
1 teaspoon of baking soda 1/2 a teaspoon of salt and 2 teaspoons of baking powder
now let's put it all together the recipe that we're making today is a vanilla chiffon cake
Very fancy and the first step is to separate our egg whites from our egg yolks so we want all of our whites over here and
All of our yolks over here. Oh my gosh. Oh my gosh now to the bowl with the egg
Yolks add one cup of sugar and whisk it up a little bit, this would be the sweetest omelet
You have ever eaten if you threw this on the grill right now
And then add the rest of your wet ingredients vegetable oil, water, vanilla extract, and almond extract
mmm mm mhhh
Then gently whisk together until well combined I've set the egg mixture off to the side now in a large mixing bowl add your
dry Ingredients minus the smaller amount of sugar we're still saving that for later
I'll show ya once the dry ingredients are ready time to add in our egg mixture
Whisk together until you can't see any more of the dry ingredients, this is a good arm workout
I will say though that this is
Easier than sneaking into the hyrule castle and into the library because at the time that you do it in the game
You know it's under the bad guys
Influence so you gotta be real. stealthy to make our meringue
I've got a large bowl transfer our egg whites into the bigger bowl using an electric hand mixer
Mix the egg whites until they're frothy it will look really
bubbly to add our sugar we're using the smaller measurement, so slowly rain it in and by rain
I mean make it rain while you mix
But drizzle like every day in Seattle you want to mix your meringue until you get a soft
Stiff peak final step to making the batter fold your egg whites and three parts into the egg
Yolk batter mixture, and if you've never folded before it's not
Mixing at all uh oh that's okay that happened. That's alright. I'll just put it back in here. I worked hard for that meringue now
I'm gonna put it back in the bowl
I'll eat it you want to be a little bit more
Gentle to keep from knocking the air out of the meringue scoop underneath the bowl fold over and turn
This is a cake that takes a lot of love it takes a little time
So if someone makes this cake for you you know they love you a lot
Batters ready time to pour into our pans in front of me. I have two round eight inch pans
I've sprayed the bottom and lined with a piece of parchment paper or this
Evenly between the two pans be careful because so much love went into making this okay jump over here
Now the cakes are ready to bake here oven to 350 degrees and bake for 30 minutes also
Just a side note the cakes are gonna rise very tall for this recipe and then once they cool
They'll sink back down. So don't worry. Don't freak out
That's supposed to happen with this recipe while they're baking I'm gonna show you guys this sweater
How it looks like link , it looks like his costume. What's not his costume
It's like his everyday wear look it has a little the hoodie is
links hat
Spoiler alert it's shield on my back after your cakes have baked give them plenty of time to cool
I've also leveled each of them and set him over here cuz we are going to assemble and Decorate over here
I have a bunch of fresh fruit that I'm gonna use to decorate and fill the cake
So it looks like the image from the video game we have
strawberries, blueberries
Raspberries a little orange a little lime and a honeydew melon
We'll start with the strawberries cut off the top and cut into four slices take the first layer
I'm placing it on a turntable to make frosting a little bit easier in a piping bag
I've got some whipped cream I use a thin layer on the top very thin
It's just for our strawberries to stick Shingle your strawberries into two rings
We'll start with the outer layer and work your way all the way around the cake now make a smaller ring right in the middle
Once your strawberries are placed. I'm to add some more whipped cream to keep them in place
Starting in the center
Fill it up
Then fill the ring ooooo in between the two strawberries and on the outside
Once you've got it filled in pipe a thin layer over the whole cake but be very careful
We don't want to move the strawberries now add the top of your cake flip it upside down
Cuz it'll be nice and smooth, and then gently press down
Pat pat pat pat pat pat now frost the entire cake with whipped cream
And I have some extra strawberries over here, so these are gonna be my little snacks as I continue to decorate om
Frost the sides go all the way around and work your way up then smooth it out with a spatula and another snack for
My dog while the cake is chilling in the fridge
We will prepare the rest of our fruit starting with our orange and lime we want orange wedges and lime slices *sniff* oh
That smells good oh
It smells so good. to make melon balls first step
Cut your honeydew melon
Butt - butt remember the end and where the stem is take a spoon and scoop out the middle you don't need it
Once you got your melon you're gonna use a preseon scoop, or a melon baller. There's two sizes here
I'm gonna go with the bigger size down and around
bloop, and there. You go little ball of melon. I love when they have fancy brunches, and they have melon balls cuz I'm like
opps here
once you've got all your fruit ready pop your cake out of the fridge. I've already cut a slice
I wanted to cut a slice and show you how to decorate one because I wanted it to look exactly
Like it does in the video game for a cake this size
You'll want to cut it into six slices that will look the closest to the video game again in a piping bag
I have some more whipped cream with a number 824
It's just an open star tip
And we're gonna pipe three rosettes then each slice gets an orange goes in the back a little lime wedge
right in front one melon ball towards the front of the cake bloop like this and one raspberry buy the melon ball and
Three blueberries and tada there you have it here is the fruit cake from?
