Ice Cream cake

A few years ago , for my neices  16th birthday she wanted an ice cream cake so off to the shops we all went .
When we got it home an got it out of te container we noticed that all it was , was a tub of ice cream with some candles and cake frills !!

So for my partners birthday i wanted to try to make ( what i would call ) a proper ice cream cake .

I started by making two marbled white and red vanilla cakes , i then lined my cake tin with baking paper and put one of the cakes on the bottom , i then smoothed some ice cream over it to make a decent layer , followed by another cake , i then covered it with a large lid and popped it in the freezer .

Once i was happy that the ice cream would be solid again ( got a bit sloppy with smoothing it on the cakes ) i made some raspberry buttercream icing by using the raspberry syrup from the tinned raspberries .
I took the cake out of the tine ( by running a knife around it and then tipping it upside down )
I lathered the icing on the top and sides ,adding chocolate fingers around the outside .
On the top i added the tinned raspberries and grated some white chocolate
I then put it back in the freezer to keep it all together

After lunch i brought it out , my partner was amazed as were our girls

It was a triumph , very sweet though so means we are only having very small pieces :)
I also made white chocolate and raspberry love heart chocs a whole raspberry coated in white chocolate mmm yumm
