How To Make grace's valentine cake

Step 1

PRE-HEAT OVEN 350. MAKE CAKE BATTERS AS DIRECTED AND ADD THE PUDDING TO EACH BATTER. NOW THY HAVE PINK PUDDING, IF U CAN FIND THAT GET THAT FOR THE PINK CAKE BATTER. IF U CAN'T FIND PINK CAKE BATTER THEN USE ENOUGH RED FOOD COLORING TO MAKE IT A NICE PINK COLOR.

Step 2

POUR CAKE BATTER INTO EACH HEART SHAPED 9INCH CAKE PAN THAT HAS BEEN SPRAYED WITH PAM COOKING SPRAY. BAKE ABOUT 45-50 MINS TIL TOOTH PICK COMES OUT CLEAN.
Step 3

TAKE OUT AND LET COOL COMPLETELY. WHILE CAKE IS COOLING. TAKE RED FOOD COLORING AND MAKE 1 LARGE TUB OF FROSTING RED AND THE OTHER A NICE PINK IN COLOR
Step 4

AFTER THE CAKES ARE COMPLETELY COOLED, TAKE EACH CAKE AND CUT CAREFULLY IN HALF SO THAT U HAVE 2 PINK HEART SHAPED CAKES AND 2 RED HEART SHAPED CAKES.
Step 5

ON A NICE CAKE PLATE, PLACE A RED PAPER VALENTINE LACED DOILY. GENTLY PLACE A PINK CAKE LAYER ON IT AND FROST TOP OF IT WITH THE RED FROSTING. THEN PLACE RED CAKE LAYER ON TOP AND FROST WITH PINK FROSTING. REPEAT TIL U GET TO THE TOP OF CAKE. DO NOT FROST THE TOP LAYER WITH FROSTING. FROST OUTSIDE OF CAKE RED OR A NICE DEEP PINK IN COLOR FROSTING UR CHOICE. IT WILL STILL BE PRETTY.
Step 6

MAKE WHITE CHOC GANACHE FOR TOP LAYER
Step 7

HEAT THE HEAVY WHIPPING CREAM IN SMALL PAN JUST TIL IT STARTS TO BOIL DON'T LET IT BREAK.REMOVE FROM HEAT. POUR IN 1 TABSP WHITE CORN SYRUP AND STIR AND ADD THE WHITE CHOC CHIPS AND KEEP STIRRING TIL SMOOTH
Step 8

SPOON OVER TOP LAYER OF CAKE AND SMOOTH OUT KINDA NICE AND THICK. LET SET
Step 9

NOW THAT TOP IS SET TAKE PASTRY BAG AND DO THE EDGES IN OPPOSIT COLOR OF FROSTING LAST USED ON CAKE, GOING AROUND THE TOP OF CAKE. IF U FROSTED THE CAKE RED USE THAT NICE DEEP PINK COLORED FROSTING TO TRIM CAKE TOP.
