Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Preparation: It is best to take the eggs out of the refrigerator and warm them up in advance. Sift the flour several times and set aside. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees for about 10 minutes

   

2. 2 Beat whole eggs: Crack the eggs into a whisk, add fine sugar and a few drops of vanilla extract, place the whisk into a basin of hot water, and whisk

   

3. 3 Beat until you lift the whisk, the dripping lines will not disappear quickly, and the lines on the surface of the egg batter are clear

   

4. 4 Sift in the flour several times

   

5. 5 Use a spatula to stir from the bottom up and mix well. Mix well each time until the dry powder is no longer visible, and then sift in the next time

   

6. 6 Then slowly pour in the vegetable oil along the edge of the egg beater, mix well and pour into a six-inch round mold, shaking it a few times to release large bubbles. The fluidity of cake batter is better than that of chiffon cake, so there is no need to smooth it out

   

7. 7 Place in the middle rack of the oven, heat up and down to 170 degrees, bake for about 60 minutes, take out and let cool and set aside.

   

8. 8 While the cake is baking, mix the fondant crust with a little dry pancetta, mix it with different food colorings, and press it into the mold in batches

   

9. 9 Make doors, windows, fences and other small accessories for later use

   

10. 10 After slicing the sponge cake base, smooth the middle with buttercream and cover with a layer of cake slices. Wrap it all around with fondant and do the same on top. Use a tool to draw lines of different shades to imitate the look of tree bark

    

11. 11 First select the location of the finished doors and windows, glue them in place, roll them into thin strips, and wind the top growth rings

    

12. 12 Color matching, making flowers, gluing mushrooms, fences, etc.

    

13. 13 Making small animals can be based on personal preference. I made rabbits and squirrels

    

14. 14 After putting them together, add embellishments of melted snow at appropriate locations to complete
