Kiss Cake
HUGE choco kiss for Fathers Day cake. Used 6 stacked devils food cakes to carve this kiss. All choco buttercream with white fondant flag/strip , I had actually gotten this idea from another CC member but I don't know their name but I remember that this was a really neat idea andcouldn't wait to make one myself :)
I love it! This would be perfect for just about any chocolate addict out there! Great cake!
Carved?! Wow! What a great job! beautiful icing job, too.
Love it. I'll have to try this one on my hubby=) He'll think it's cute :wink:
I like the way you used the foil!
Fantastic idea!! How tall is the actual cake? 6 cakes is pretty big!!! Wow!!
I need a "Yummy" icon here to put with your Kiss!! cool!
..haha..yummy icon...it was about 18 in" high and about 2' wide at base.
What a simple yet ingenious idea! I LOVE IT!

I absolutely LOVE this cake!!! I don't live far from Hershey's and you certainly did them good.

i love this cake! i may just want to try one myself, if you don't mind! into my faves it goes!!
LOVE IT!!! I have to make one of these for Friday and need some advice. Did you use different sized cakes? How on earth did you get the "paper" to stand up? And finally, what did you write on it with? Thank you for the inspiration, best I've seen!
Yes..I used different sized cakes. I started with 14" then 12",10", 8", 6" and 4". I doweled the 1st 2 layers and used a cardboard round on top of those 2 bottom layers.
...Cont( hit 'ok' too soon :oops: ) I shaved the edges with a serrated knife for smooth angles & took the shavings & 'packed' them on top for the 'tip' effect. I iced it with choco buttercream & smoothed it with a plastic flexible film strip ( you could use a plastic flimsy ruler or anything like that.) To smooth it, I mist a little water on the area & 'squeegied' it in a scrape motion from bottom to top. The 'paper' is MMF semi hard & propped w/ small dowel peice behind it. Writing is edibl...
...cont..'edible markers'. The end :P
Thank you for explaining everything!!! I am going to try my hand at this tomorrow. Wish me luck. Great job, really!!!
Thanks for the compliment and I'm glad to have helped. Btw, "good luck!"..I'm sure you'll do great. Make sure to post it when completed :D I'd love to see it.
The perfect kiss-sounds yummy!!
