Chocolate Present With Fondant Hearts And Bow

Chocolate Present With Fondant Hearts And Bow on Cake Central

Chocolate cake with chocolate frosting. I cut out fondant hearts to decorate the "wrapping paper" and then fondant ribbons and bow. This was my first fondant bow, and I definitely need LOTS more practice. The picture makes it look better than it does! But at least I know I can do it now.

Great bow! I love the stark contrast of the chocolate and white. Really great job! What chocolate frosting recipe did you use? It's so nice and dark!

Thanks. I'm actually a wimp when it comes to making chocolate frosting, so that's actually the wilton chocolate frosting from the tub. Just added a tsp of water to each tub to make it thinner and easier to work with. I don't know of a chocolate recipe to make from scratch yet.
