How do you make a Heart Cake?
When your cakes are baked and cooled, just cut the round cake in half to make two half-circles. Leave the square cake whole, but orient it as a diamond. Next place the flat side of each half-round against the top sides of the diamond to make a heart shape.
How do you serve a heart-shaped cake?
When you are slicing the cake for serving, simply use a cake knife to cut vertically down the middle to create two even sides. Then, line up your knife with the dip between the curves of the heart. Next, slice down to the point at the bottom of the heart.
What is the perfect temperature to bake a cake?
Cakes are almost always baked at 350 degrees Fahrenheit. If you are looking at the results of getting a flat-topped cake, just reduce the temperature to 325 degrees.
How to make a Peek-a-Boo Heart Pound Cake
Make sure to give yourself time to make this cake, the first cake needs to chill a bit so that you can cut out the cake with heart cookie cutters. I couldn’t find a double heart cookie cutter, so I used my single heart cookie cutter instead. Also, make sure to use a 9 x 5-inch loaf pan, any other pan will be too small and the cake batter will overflow.
