Steps to make Polka Dot Bavarois Doll Festival Cake:
- Make the polka dot sponge cake. Cream the butter in a bowl, and mix in the sugar, egg whites, cake flour, and food coloring in that order. Place this into a pastry bag.
- Make a 25 x 15cm rectangular mold with kitchen parchment paper. Squeeze Step 1 out into a polka dot pattern on the bottom of the paper mold. Chill in the refrigerator for 10 minutes until set.
- Place the eggs and sugar into a bowl, place into a hot water bath to warm it up, remove from the hot water bath, whip on high with a hand mixer for 4 minutes, and then whip on low for an additional 2 minutes. Add in the sifted cake flour and stir.
- Once the flouriness has subsided, add in the milk and butter that has been heated up in the microwave, and stir until it produces a glaze. Pour into Step 2, and bake for 10 minutes in an oven preheated to 170°C.
- Make the matcha sponge cake. Make the batter in the same manner as Step 3, and mix in the combined sifted matcha powder and cake flour. Cover the 15 cm mold with parchment paper.
- Pour the batter into the mold, and bake for 15-17 minutes in an oven preheated to 170°C. Place onto a rack after baking, and let cool.
- Carefully remove the cooking sheet from a cooled Step 4, cut strips down the sides of the mold, and cut 2 strips length-wise.
- Stick only the side strips from Step 8 on the oven sheet, and stick it perfectly on top of the sponge cake from Step 7. 1 strip isn't enough, so spread out the the second strip as well.
- Cut the matcha sponge cake from Step 6 to fit the bottom of the mold, and place into the bottom of the mold from Step 8.
- Make the bavarois. Soak the powdered gelatin in the listed amount of water. Mix the egg yolks and sugar in a bowl. Add in the skin-temperature milk and mix.
- Place Step 10 into a hot water bath to warm it up, add in the soaked gelatin, and dissolve it. Pass it through a strainer, add in the vanilla essence, and stir.
- Mix Step 11 until it thickens while placing it in an ice water bath. Whip the heavy cream until it thickens, and stir together.
- Divide Step 12 into two equal portions, and mix half of it with the strawberries in a mixer.
- Pour Step 13 into the mold from Step 9, and chill in the fridge for 30 minutes to set.
- Next add in the remaining plain batter, and let chill in the fridge for more than 3 hours to solidify.
- Carefully remove it from the mold , remove the paper, and decorate the surface with whipped cream etc.

How to Boost Your Mood with Food
Many of us have been conditioned to think that comfort foods are terrible and must be avoided. If your comfort food is candy or junk food this holds true. Soemtimes, comfort foods can be very nourishing and good for us to consume. There are some foods that, when you consume them, may boost your mood. If you seem to be a little bit down and you’re needing an emotional pick me up, try some of these.
Eggs, believe it or not, are great for helping you fight depression. You must see to it, though, that what you make includes the egg yolk. Every time you would like to cheer yourself up, the egg yolk is the most important part of the egg. Eggs, the yolk especially, are high in B vitamins. These B vitamins are terrific for helping to improve your mood. This is because these vitamins help your neural transmitters–the parts of your brain that control your mood–work better. Try to eat an egg and feel happier!
Make a trail mixout of a variety of seeds and nuts. Peanuts, cashews, sunflower seeds, almonds, pumpkin seeds, and so on are all terrific for helping to boost your mood. This is because seeds and nuts have lots of magnesium which increases your brain’s serotonin levels. Serotonin is a feel-good chemical that tells the brain how to feel at any given point in time. The higher your levels of serotonin, the more pleasant you are going to feel. Not just that but nuts, in particular, are a great source of protein.
Cold water fish are great for eating if you are wanting to beat back depression. Salmon, herring, tuna fish, mackerel, trout, and so on, they’re all high in omega-3 and DHA. DHA and omega-3s are two things that truly help the grey matter in your brain run a lot better. It’s true: consuming a tuna fish sandwich can greatly raise your mood.
Some grains are truly wonderful for fighting off bad moods. Quinoa, barley, millet, etc are great at helping you be happier. These foods fill you up better and that can help you with your moods as well. It’s not hard to feel low when you feel famished! The reason these grains elevate your mood is that they are easy for your body to digest. They are simpler to digest than other foods which helps bring up your blood sugar levels and that, in turn, elevates your mood.
Green tea is truly excellent for your mood. You were sure it had to be mentioned in this article, right? Green tea is rich in a certain amino acid known as L-theanine. Studies have found that this particular amino acid can essentially induce brain waves. This will better your brain’s focus while at the same relaxing the rest of your body. You probably already knew it is not hard to become healthy when you consume green tea. Now you know that green tea can elevate your mood also!
As you can see, you don’t need to eat junk food or foods that are terrible for you to feel better! Try a couple of of these suggestions instead.
