For example if it says makes 500ml then only make 350ml.<\/p>\n<p>Then pour that all over your cake, letting it soak in.  Place it in the fridge to set.<\/p>\n<p>Repeat with your other jelly and cake layers.  Tip: once it is set if you are not using it immediately fold the plastic wrap over the top to stop it from drying out.<\/p>\n<p>Place your white chocolate into a bowl and melt it.  If you are using real chocolate, containing cocoa butter, make sure you <a href=\"https:\/\/www.howtocookthat.net\/public_html\/temper-chocolate\/\" title=\"Chocolate Secrets Revealed\" target=\"_blank\">temper<\/a> it so that it sets properly.<\/p>\n<p>Add in some yellow candy coloring or oil based food coloring.<\/p>\n<p>Pour the chocolate into your bucket, and tip it to spread it over the side.  Keep turning allowing the excess to tip into a bowl.  Place it in the fridge to set.  <\/p>\n<p>Give the inside a second coat.  This will set fairly quickly because the first layer of chocolate is cold so spread it out and up the sides.  Leave it upside down on some baking paper to set so the top edge doesn&#8217;t get too thin.<\/p>\n<p>To make italian meringue frosting add the cream of tar tar to the whites and turn your mixer on to whip.  Place the sugar and water over high heat and add a candy thermometer to the side of the pan.<\/p>\n<p>Once the egg whites reach soft peaks turn the mixer off while you wait for the sugar.<\/p>\n<p>Using a pastry brush dipped in water brush down the sides of the pan to get any sugar crystals off the edges.<br \/>\nOnce the sugar syrup reaches 238F (114.44 degrees Celsius) take it off the heat and pour it into the egg whites with the mixers running.  Keep whipping it until the bowl cools down.<\/p>\n<p>Tip your chocolate bucket out of the plastic bucket.<\/p>\n<p>Stack inside with layers of jelly cake separated by italian meringue.<\/p>\n<p>To make the lid colour some chocolate blue and pour onto some baking paper.  Spread it out to make a circle.  The playdoh lids have and indent in the middle so add a baking tin on top and push down slightly.<\/p>\n<p>Once it is starting to set use a knife to trim around it leaving a border so the lid is bigger than the bucket.  Then place that in the fridge to set firmly.<\/p>\n<p>To make the logo follow the detailed instructions in the video.  Add to the side of the cake and add the lid on top.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.howtocookthat.net\/public_html\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/play-doh-cake-video-550x722.jpg\" alt=\"play doh cake tutorial ann reardon\" width=\"550\" height=\"722\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-43318\" data-wp-pid=\"43318\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.howtocookthat.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/play-doh-cake-video-550x722.jpg 550w, https:\/\/www.howtocookthat.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/play-doh-cake-video-300x394.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.howtocookthat.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/play-doh-cake-video-228x300.jpg 228w, https:\/\/www.howtocookthat.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/play-doh-cake-video-60x79.jpg 60w, https:\/\/www.howtocookthat.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/play-doh-cake-video.jpg 1704w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\" \/><br \/>\n<h7 class=\"updated\">Copyright \u00a9 2016 Reardon Media Pty Ltd.
