Happy Valentine's!
I made some little red velvet truffles and cupcakes ♥
And also some specially designed red velvet cakelets : Sachiel the third Angel (from Evangelion) !
I thought of making chocolate initially but was inspired by the idea of Angel's from a friend (follow her here: Chiaki's Blog). Since this is also an all-time favourite series since childhood of a friend, I've decided I could make some white cookies/cakelets in the shape of some Angels; and red velvet became my choice! Red velvet: the red inner flesh and blood of the Angel...oopss sounds more like Halloween? ;D
Red velvet cake + truffle + white chocolate + Evangelion = appropriate, perfect for Valentine's!
Lovely Orire (Pullip Ayanami Rei) modelled with these lovely cakelets! ♥
. . .
Just some basic red velvet cake ingredients to batter~ But I think I added a little too much cocoa powder? Coz the colour turned out to be darker lol
Make some cream cheese frosting while the cakes are having a sauna in the oven ~
One part for a whole cake, another saved for some cupcakes~
Cupcakes are done for now; but cakelets and truffles are not!
Crumble the whole cake~
Mix the crumbled cake with the prepared frosting~
Roll into tiny balls (for truffles), roll and shape into Sachiel shape (for the Sachiel cakelets)!
Not very neat work :P And they look more like meatballs, no?
Place them into the fridge to harden about 2 hours~
Melt some white chocolate melts in double boiler.
Cover the truffles and cakelets with the melted chocolate, and let them to set!
Before the chocolate sets, just add some decorations for some love!
And ta-da~!
Red Velvet Truffles ♥
and Cupcakes~
For someone special who loves Evangelion, and who brought me to like this epic series too; Sachiel the third Angel as red velvet cakelets ! ♥
Was supposed to use chocolate chips as the eyes, but I've forgot to buy them DX
Heart-shapes work well anyway lol
This is how it looks like inside! Gore-y, red and fleshy isn't it? ♥
My white chocolate coating doesn't look very nice but presentable, and most importantly tastes yummy and feel loved! :'D
