London Fog Cake takes the flavors of a London Fog latte and puts them in to a cake. You have layers of deliciously moist Earl Grey tea infused cake, silky smooth Earl Grey buttercream, and salted caramel drips for a cake sure to impress everyone.
Earl Grey tea is a black tea blend flavored with the oil found in the rind of the bergamot orange, which give it its unique aroma and flavor. The name ‘London Fog’ comes from the effect of foamy milk hitting the black tea and creating a cloud-like plume, resembling a foggy London afternoon, even though the drink was created in Canada.
To achieve the London Fog flavor in cake form you start off steeping Earl Grey tea in milk that will be used in both the cake and the buttercream. The cake layers also have loose leaf Earl Grey tea added to the batter to create a lovely flecked appearance, along with sour cream and cake flour keep the layers moist and tender. For more London Fog flavor, you can add a few drops of either bergamot or lavender oil to both the cake batter and buttercream.
The finished cake is beautifully decorated with a salted caramel drip, buttercream rosettes and loose leaf tea sprinkled on top. Although salted caramel is not traditionally part of a London Fog, it adds some sweet complexity to the whole cake and grabs your attention. Earl Grey tea lovers will be in heaven with this cake!
This class is suitable for the following Dynamic Duo types:
YES: Parent/Grandparent & Child
YES: Couples
YES: Friends (you will share all equipment/ingredients for 1 recipe/batch…we let you rock, paper, scissors if the recipe doesn’t divide equally.)
*What is a Dynamic Duo? It’s basically two buddies sharing the same workstation at no extra charge. You share all equipment and ingredients for a single batch of whatever we’re making that day. (Don’t worry, we won’t stick you with some random stranger- if you want to fly solo, you’ll have the station (and all the yummy food) all to yourself!) On Chef/Date Nights you will always have enough for two and generally extra to bring home too.
We provide all ingredients, supplies, and tools required for use during each class. Best of all you get to take home whatever tasty treats you make - we provide all boxes/packaging.
Please wear comfortable shoes (stools will be provided) and have long hair tied back. For the comfort of all our students and staff, we ask that you refrain from wearing perfume or cologne. You may wish to bring a cardigan or sweater as the kitchen is kept at 68F.
