Tips & Tricks

<p>Try baking our Mars Bar cake recipe for a slice of nostalgia. Not only is this recipe delicious, but it’s also fun and simple to make, and a perfect activity for you and your children. The chewy, gooey cereal base is blended with melted Mars Bars and topped with rich milk chocolate and white chocolate swirls. Bliss. So, gather your baking tools, put on your apron, and let's create something indulgent with this ultimate Mars Bar cake recipe.</p>
<h3>Can I melt Mars Bars in the microwave?</h3>
<p>Yes, you can melt a Mars Bar in the microwave. We’d recommend you do this on the lowest power setting though, to avoid spoiling the chocolate. Put the Mars Bars in your microwave on a low setting, and check it every 30 seconds until it is melted and smooth.</p>
<h3>Can I melt a Mars Bar on a hob?</h3>
<p>If you don’t have a microwave, you can melt your Mars Bar in a small saucepan on the hob. Chop the Mars Bar into smaller chunks to speed up the melting process. Melt your chocolate on low heat and to check it often.</p>
<h3>How to make sure your Mars Bar cakes are soft</h3>
<p>If you haven’t melted and mixed your Mars Bars, syrup and butter enough, this can cause your final bake to turn out too hard and clumpy. When melting these three ingredients together, you can use a whisk as they begin to melt to get the mixture nice and smooth.</p>
