Preparation: Process the ingredients at room temperature. Remove the baking tray from the oven and place the folded baking tin in the middle. Preheat the oven to 160°C (hot air oven 150°C). Using a mixer with a paddle attachment, carefully mix together 2 tablespoons of water, 100ml of whipped cream, 2 eggs and the cake mix in a bowl until smooth. Then mix the mixture for 3 minutes on the highest setting to a light batter. Divide the batter over the baking tin and place it with the baking tray in the middle of the oven. Bake the cake in 45 to 50 minutes. Then leave the red velvet cake to cool in the baking tin for at least 30 minutes. Next, cut the cardboard baking tin loose from the cake and cut the red velvet cake horizontally in half. Collect the crumbs and leave both halves to cool before decorating. Mix 100g MonChou until smooth with a mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Add the topping mix and 150ml whipping cream and mix everything on the lowest setting for ½ minute until it becomes a thick mass. Then mix the mixture on the highest setting for 2 minutes until it becomes a light topping. Take the red velvet cake halves and spread 1/3 of the topping on the bottom half. Carefully place the top on the covered half and again cover the top with 1/3 of the topping. Also cover the sides of the cake with the last 1/3 of the topping. Smooth all sides with the topping. Finely crush the remaining crumbs using a sieve and decorate the top of the cake with the crumbs. Store the red velvet cake in the refrigerator until serving
