Tree Trunk Anniversary Cake

Client requested Tree with heart carved out & verbage. Very cute idea and I was happy to create. Wife was surprising her husband with a small cake to celebrate their 2 year anniversary which also happens to be Valentine's Day. I love surprisees!


4 layers of Rich Chocolate Cake with Dark Chocolate Butter Cream



Bird's Eye View: I like the heart shaped branches infront/bottom of cake.

Black & White Elegant Cake

While I'm happy to admit I'm glad how the look of the cake turned out, I'm even more pleased how it tastes.
Inside is a moist, rich chocolate cake with chocolate buttercream, raspberry & shaved truffle layers.  YUM!






Back of cake

I used an ivory fondant for the scroll work to make them stand out a little more

Gumpaste Flowers

These did NOT turn out how I wanted, but I learned a lot. Might use them, or try adding more petals.
