fudge and caramel filling with?

Chocolate buttercream or whipped ganache. Mmmmm!

I'm with Kitagrl.

That's what I was thinking - chocolate buttercream or whipped ganache - but was also told vanilla buttercream - just not sure how good that would be.

Thanks for your responses

those sound great. I also love Mocha Buttercream (coffee chocolate). Fabulous on pretty much anything chocolate or right out of the bowl.

Ganache sounds good and so does vanilla.

I made a choc cake yesterday with dulce de luche filling and frosting, OMG.. it is sooo good!

Any of the above! Although to hedge my bets, I often ice with vanilla IMBC, in case people just can't handle the richness of that much chocolate.

My pick would be 7 minute icing, It is glossy, very white, and a very good counterpoint to all that chocolate.

Sounds yummy! You pretty much can't go wrong here! I like mocha or Kahlua but a nice vanilla buttercream would be good too or even some sort of cream cheese, I'm a big cream cheese fan so a cream cheese or even sour cream frosting would blend together too. Sounds so good! Just enough time to make all the cakes I want to try out

Cream cheese icing!!! yummy! I'm with you jeep girl.

They all sound good! I have never had or made a 7 minute frosting...what's it like ?

Here are 2 recipes, basically the same taste, just different ways of getting there...but both are fantastic!
