I hope you don’t mind another cake photo, but I just love love love cakes. I made this simple chocolate cake for my sister-in-laws birthday last weekend. I couldn’t just leave it a plain ole chocolate cake, so I made a green(her favorite color) flower from fondant and slapped it on the side. Instant chic cake!!!
Thanks to Christina over at Mele Cotte for giving me the idea of using coffee grounds for the middle of the flower.
Want the recipe for this beautiful cake? Its the best chocolate cake in the world and the frosting is, well, Evil!
I ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS use Hershey’s Black Magic Cake Recipe..here I have made many-a chocolate cakes and this one is by far the very best!
and for the frosting I use is Hershey’s “perfectly chocolate” chocolate frosting..here
It looks beautiful! Love that I could be of assistance. 🙂 Maybe we will be able to decorate a cake together one day!
Beautiful!
This is so pretty! Love it.
Super cake! I don’t have that recipe…going to copy it now.
Those are two great recipes! Love your cake!

How beautiful! Isn’t it amazing how one simple flower can totally finish off an otherwise plain cake! I am definitely going to try those recipes! Thanks for sharing!

That does not look to simple to me…I just dont have that creative touch when it comes to frosting layer cakes.
