Chocolate Groom's Cake
The mother requested that the cake be chocolate icing with white borders. I wasn't sure how that would look but I was quite pleased with it. One thing I was not pleased with is the fact that I was rushed and I put the BACK of the bottom cake in the FRONT! My basketweave didn't match up and there it is in the front for ALL TO SEE!!
no one will notice it at all--did a great job and the monogram is terrific
Basket weave looks great to me!
How did you do the monogram??? Is it out of buttercream???
I found a stencil and then I laid it on the cake and traced it with a toothpick. Then I outlined the toothpick marking with buttercream icing using tip#3, then I just filled in the rest with tip#3 as well, let it dry a little, then dampened my finger with a wet papertowel and patted the filling until it all blended together. I hope that helps you.
