1. Mix with spoon Nuttlex and shortening and put into the microwave for 10 seconds to soften and warm.

2. Add a softened Nuttlex/Shortening mix and 400g of cake mix to a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Use a spatula to combine the Nuttlex/Shortening mix and Cake Cream, mix roughly. 

3. Keep your mixer on medium/slow speed and gradually pour in 200ml of water (warm) til fully combined. Once combined, mix on high for approx. 1 minute.

BRINGING BACK COLD CAKE CREAM:

1. To use Cake Cream that has been in the fridge or freezer, it will need to come back to room temperature and warmed gently in the microwave. 1kg of Cake Cream warmed in the microwave for no more than 20 secs, 10-15 sec can also work well depending on your microwave. Do this in small bursts as all microwaves are different

• Cake cream must be at room temperature in order to work with it.
• To get an even smoother finish, use a paddle attachment and mix on low speed for 5-10 minutes.
• In warmer months, you can increase the shortening ratio and reduce Nuttlex, as long as total fat is no more than 500g.
