Venice Cake

Ingredients

Directions

The book gives no oven temperature. The 350°F (175°C) in the steps was added when the recipe was transcribed, as a starting point.

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

  2. Butter a plain round mold.

  3. Prepare the Genoa cake mixture.

  4. Pour the mixture into the mold and bake until done.

  5. Once baked, remove from the mold.

  6. Pipe a design on the cake with Royal icing in a light and artistic manner.
