Feeling On Top Of The World At The Moment
Decorating By Brontecakes Updated 19 Feb 2009 , 12:25am by Brontecakes
I just had a client ring me to thank me for making her wedding cake. She was absolutely thrilled with the result and said that the cake was magnificent and tasted great.
The cake is also uploaded onto another website and this client has taken the time to join-up just so she could make comments on my cake. I must say I am feeling a bit chuffed (= kind of like proud) awwhhh!!!

That's an absolutely beautiful cake plus it sounds delicious. You should be proud. Thanks for sharing.
Wow, beautiful work.
X2 cherry cake? What's that?
And the icing is white chocolate? But the chocolate curls look to be a different color?

Thanks everyone.
In Australia we have a chocolate bar named "cherry ripe" it is a combo of cherrys and coconut covered in rich dark chocolate. They are very nice and very rich. Anyway I have a recipe for a mud cake made using the cherry ripes and it is delicious!!! In fact it is my most popular requested cake far above any other. I usually cover it in dark choc ganache but for a wedding cake I wanted to do something different. I was inspired by a Louisa Morris Designed cake I saw on the flickr website and made my cake sort of similar.
I haven't done the chocolate swirls before and they are a little bit different as I used different chocolate than I did for the cake panels. It is very hot where I live and the chocolate was melting before it would swirl. I used 3 blocks just to get that number of swirls.
I learnt a lot making this cake. Next time I would make my flowers the creamy colour of the chocolate so it blends together better. And I wouldn't make my bottom layer quite so tall.
Thanks again for your kind comments.
and while I am in bragging mode
Just to add to my "on top of the world" feeling, My Harry Potter Chess Set cake won the "Worlds Most Amazing Cake Group" competition on the Flickr website for January.
Sigh.... can life get any better..... LOL

Totally, absolutely, positively and 100% well deserved award!! it's an A M A Z I N G cake. When I showed it to my kids they didn't believe me it was a cake!...then guess what their next question was?----'so, can I have a cake like that for my b-day??'---yikes!!!! 
I said---Ah of course!!! let me just find out where she lives so we can order it from her!!-----LOL
Congratulations Brontecakes, you have an amazing talent!
Just further to my story....The bride just dropped of the payment for the cake and gave me a $50.00 tip!!! Which I will donate to the Victorian (Aust) bushfire appeal.
(For those not aware a large portion of Victoria was devastated by bushfire 10 days ago with hundreds of lives lost, thousands of homes destroyed and millions of dollars damage done. Entire towns were burnt. It is Australia's worst ever disaster.)
