Shinchan birthday cake is easy to make. The only difficult part was to trace the design on the cake but one easy trick made it possible. The way we made a chocolate collar for our black forest cake, the same procedure, I applied here and this worked. With this, you can make any birthday cake easily with any cartoon image of your kids choice.

Well, making Shinchan cake was easy but when I started making it, the red food color that I had was not matching with Shinchan's shirt color. I made the shirt with chopped cherries as the exact red color for making Shinchan's shirt was not available here at the local cake shop too.

Tips to make a perfect Shinchan birthday cake

1. Bake the sponge cake a day ahead. Cling wrap it and keep it in the refrigerator. Next day it is easy to work on the sponge cake. It will become firm and you can slice it easily.
2. The image size that you are taking the print out should fit on the cake.
3. Trace with dark chocolate on the mirror image of the cake. When we will flip the image over the cake you will get the original image. This procedure is explained in detail below. You can also watch the video to know how to do it perfectly.
4. Let the chocolate set on the cake. Make sure you take out the iced cake from the refrigerator only while flipping the image on the cake. When the cake is chilled the chocolate image will get transferred easily.
