Steps

  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C (convection oven 160°C) and place the liners in the muffin pan.

  2. Prepare 250 g FunCakes cupcake mix according to package instructions and divide into the liners. Bake the cupcakes for about 18-22 minutes until lightly golden, then let them cool on the work surface after baking.

  3. Grease the pan with FunCakes release spray. Prepare 150 g FunCakes Sponge Cake Deluxe mix according to instructions. Bake the sponge cake for about 30-35 minutes, then immediately turn out onto a cooling rack and let cool.

  4. Prepare 175 g FunCakes Enchanted Cream® mix following the instructions and flavor with a little FunCakes Mascarpone flavoring paste.

  5. Cut the sponge cake into 2 layers with the cake leveler, fill and spread a thin layer of Enchanted Cream® all around. Knead the sugar paste well, roll it out thinly and cover the cake with it.

  6. Color the remaining Enchanted Cream® with the FunCakes food coloring gels. Place the cream in piping bags fitted with adapters and tips. For tip #1M, no adapter is used. Decorate the cake and cupcakes with the various colored creams.

  7. Sprinkle some FunCakes bronze nonpareils on top and decorate with a bit of gold.

  8. To finish the bento box, cut the insert to the size of the cake. Leave 2 holes for the cupcakes.
