    Pour batter in a buttered rectangular mold and bake for 25 to 28 minutes until golden brown.

  5. 5

    While the cake is in the oven, Make the buttercream: Cream your butter until fluffy. Slowly add the powdered sugar and cocoa powder. Finally, mix in your milk and set the buttercream aside.

  6. 6

    When your cake comes out of the oven, let it cool a little, but when still warm, get it out of the mold.

    When cake is completely cool, cut it lengthways and spread your buttercream on one slice. Cover with your second one and prepare the decoration.

    For the decoration: Whip up your cream until it is firm. Add the sugar and set aside about three quarters of the mix and paint it yellow, except for two tablespoons you will leave white. Color the rest blue.

  9. 9

    Cover two thirds of the cake, starting from the bottom, with the yellow. Cover the rest with the blue.

  10. 10

    Add a little rectangle of blue on top of the section you just made. Add one horizontal line on top of that and you're done with the overalls.

  11. 11

    Take that white cream you had and with a spoon, dollop those round shapes for his eyes.

  12. 12

    With remaining frosting, place two circles inside the white circles for the pupils.

  13. 13

    Cut raspberries in half and gently squash them flat. Use the pieces to shape his mouth.
