I made this cake for an australian class mate who was getting married. I had a lot of firsts on this cake, the first cake with satin ribbon, the first chocolate mud cake, and the first cake to ever fall apart in my hands when trying to de-mold it. The cake tasted really good, a bit chocolaty for me. Since it is really hard to color fondant black and not have it get really dry, I painted the vines after placing them on the cake.
