Rose cake I STEPbySTEP

Happy birthday getBready!

Two years ago I posted for the first time one of my food pic, it was a roast and I confess the picture I took wasn’t so good… 🙂 .

When I started my blog I was coming off a period of change,  an own project was what I really needed.

Since then almost every day I spend some of my free time working for the blog: taking pictures, cooking, writing recipes and guessing a correct English translation 🙂

Today I want to celebrate getBready because is what helped me focus my way and my ambition.

How to do it? With a very special cake: the rose cake!

Place the left side of the dough on the central one.

Now place the right side of the dough on the central one.

Wrap the dough in clingfilm and place it into the fridge for 15 minutes.

Repeat step 3 for 2 more times (roll out the dough, fold it and place it into the fridge). When finished let it rest for 1 hour into the fridge.

Wrap the dough and the cut 7 pieces.
