Make a Two-Tone Pattern On Your Cake
Powdered sugar and cocoa powder can be used singly or in combination to give a frosted cake a polished look. When using stencils of any sort, freeze the cake for 15 minutes before decorating. Powdered sugar will gradually dissolve, so apply this fancy decoration just before serving. Gather six jar lids, varying in size from small to medium. Place the lids facedown on the surface of the cake in a random arrangement, letting some hang over the edge. Dust the cake with cocoa or confectioners’ sugar. Remove the lids, grasping them by the lip and lifting straight up. Rearrange them randomly again, then dust with a contrasting color, using confectioners’ sugar, cocoa, or very finely ground nuts. Remove the lids carefully. Click here for more cake tips.

This was my first attempt at Hoddeok. It’s a dough filled sweet treat that is street food in Korea. I put strawberry in the dough (my own addition; not typical) and it’s filled with a brown sugar and cinnamon mixture.The mixture stays ridiculously hot (for a while) after taking it out of the pan.
As one of my Korean penpals so lovingly pointed out; mine weren’t flat enough and I didn’t use enough oil in the pan. LoL. And, right he is, but they were hella good! I’m not posting the recipe because I wouldn’t recommend it. I’m going to go with another one next time. I’m also going to make sure to pass the strawberry puree through a sieve and use more of it. This will be super when strawberries are actually in season.
