I have be dying to make this style of cake and the perfect oppotunity came up this week. is for a surprise 10th wedding anniversary for a couple that i went to school with. so i new i could go with this design and they would like it.

thanks debbie

no i dont think the vienna cream recipe is on here, its just another name for buttercream. but here it is

125 grams of butter ( american version is 1 stick i think)
1 1/2 cups of icing sugar (powdered sugar)
2 table spoons of milk

beat butter in a small bowl with a mixer until as white as possible. gradually beat in half the sugar, milk then remaining sugar . flavour and color as required.

you can flavour with any essence you like or finely grated rind of any citrus friuts.

just wanted to tell everyone who said the cake looked beautiful and sounded like it would taste great....

Well i just had a visit from the girl i made it for and she loved it... she said it looked unreal and tasted amazing, saying it was all eaten very quickly.

this is great as it was a new recipe for a mud cake that i hadn't had a chance to try first so i was a little worried about the taste of it...

she also said she wished she could of had a cake like this for her wedding. which is great as i would love to do this style for a wedding... and the best part is they will spread the word about my cakes...

yeah.........

kylie

Very pretty, and sounds so yummy!!!
