White Chocolate Curls Cake
Before finishing the cake I did for today, i decided to take some pictures with other decorations. I like the plain one on the left, maybe it would suit some sugared fruits on top, the one on the right has chocolate butterflies that i did on a course a few months back and i was looking for the perfect opportunity to use them. The cake was a double decker mudcake. Basically each cake has 5 layers (1/2 an inch thick each) of mudcake, starting with dark, then white, and so on, all joined with white ganache hmm
how did you make the chocolate pillars? Great job, looks fantastic
kellykake, on the original cake i made them using a knife scraped against the chocolate, i couldnt get it to work this time, so i had to come up with an alternative, and did them with small pieces of acetate. Put the melted choc on them, folded them into a cilinder, stuck them with tape, and put them in the freezer to set. When i cut the tape off, out popped the perfect cilinders. I had to make an effort to make the edges ragged.
It looks so good
This looks great! I love the butterflies.
