DIY Piccolo (10 cm)
The little cake, for two to four people. Same method as the bigger ones, but everything goes a little quicker; it is made for a calm moment.
Photos are for inspiration. A cake's height and number of layers follow the size and weight you order, so a smaller cake can look different from the one pictured.

4 min - 3
Add the next sponge and repeat until all the layers are stacked. Centre each layer and press gently.

Decorate with the sprinkles provided. Chill the cake for at least 20 minutes before serving so it sets.

- Dip the palette knife in hot water and wipe it; it gives the frosting a smooth, glossy finish.
