Sweet Potato Cake With Love

Every Wednesday night I visit Romy unnie and Giman oppa and last night we decided to make sweet potato cake. So we headed over to Kelly unnie’s apartment and had a girls cake making night. I LOVE sweet potato cake and I didn’t think that our homemade cake could possibly beat the taste of the sweet potato cake you can get from Hello Happy but I was wrong. It was so much nicer.
Before we started on the cake we thought it was best to make something savoury so that we didn’t just eat cake all night. So we made German sausage rolls. Here’s what they looked like before after after being baked. So yummy with mustard and tomato sauce.


Then we started on the cake. Kelly unnie had already boiled the sweet potatoes so Romy unnie and I just had to pull the skin off.



We were making two cakes so we needed to make bread crumbs out of a double sponge using the blender.



Meanwhile, both Kelly unnie and Giman oppa whipped the cream. We then had to mash the potato and mix it with the cream, some cake crumbs and pine nuts. Another double sponge was cut in half and jam layered on it.



Next we layered on the potato mix, placed another sponge on top, another layer of jam and another layer of potato mix. Then we used the remaining crumbs to spread over the top of the last layer of potato. Finish off the cake with some cream and nuts. Put cling wrap around it and pop it into the freezer for anywhere between an hour and three. Delicious! And that is how you make sweet potato cake.

We had some fun with Sarang while oppa had a sleep with Giwon.


I always have a great time with these wonderful people. I’ll definitely miss them next year. <3
