it’s also my 1st attempt at a chocolate wrap so I was pleasantly pleased with the outcome.

made for a family member’s b’day .. that why is gf so I could have some as well.

50th Birthday cake

My good friend a running buddy was turning the big 50….and I had the honour of making a cake for his surprise birthday tea that was arranged by Rach.

So my brief was his running, minke the cat, and a motorbike all had to go into this cake…as those are Dazza’s favourite things..

The cake itself is a gluten free chocolate mudcake , with ganache and then decorated with fondant. ( so I could have a piece too )

 

this was the end result…..

 

But I also want too add a post about the making of the decorations as they took me about 15 hrs over the course of a week to make the bike etc

Happy 50th Birthday too you  Daz
