Judges for the competition The Happy Cooker Heart-shaped cake for Valentine's Day: by Shirley Whittington Did I hear somebody say Valentine's Day was for kids? Fiddlestocks. It's for anybody that feels romantic. If you're feeling creative as well as romantic; -you could consider a heart shaped cake which. is possible even if you don't have a pan that shape. Just make a square cake, and while it's baking, cut a heart out of a folded piece of paper the same size as the cake tin. Pop the cake out on a board, cool it, cut around the paper pattern and presto - you're a heart specialist. Pink icing looks good and lends itself to decorative piping in chocolate. You can use a cake decorating tube if you're one of the privileged classes. Otherwise, you can make do with a small plastic bag, one corner of which you have snipped with the scissors. And here's an easy candy recipe that the kids can make for their Valentines. They aren't heart shaped, but they're so good nobody cares. Lightly grease a baking sheet and preheat the oven to 350. : Combine % cup heavy cream with 3 tablespoons granulated sugar. Stir in 12 cup flour, % pound chopped candied cherries, 1/3 cup blanched slivered almonds. Drop batter from a teaspoon about 2 inches apart on a greased cookie sheet. Bake in preheated 350 oven for 10 minutes. : Cool. When cool, spread with melted sweet chocolate, or a little chocolate icing.
