LILAC FREESIA WEDDING CUPCAKE

I did a wedding consultation/tasting yesterday
giving the couple 3 flower choices
and as they never chose this one I thought I would share it with you!
such a delicate looking flower!
The cupcake is my moist chocolate recipe
with swirls of chocolate ganache.
They insisted that the cupcakes were chocolate
they were very pleased at the tasting
and booked there and then!
Such a satisfying feeling to watch people really enjoying my cakes!
You will see which one's they decided to order
later in the year after their wedding day!
Thank's for stopping by!

Ganache Covered Cake

As I have showed you some photo's of cupcakes
before I iced and decorated them,
I thought I would upload a cake which has been
covered with ganache.....
ready to be covered with sugarpaste/fondant.
I used to smooth the sides with a long spatular
which the results were good, but for me was a long process.
So I bought a side scraper, (which cost just a few pounds)
and at 5" long, it's just big enough for deep cakes too, as this cake is 5" deep.
It gives nearly perfect results and in very little time!
............wish I bought one ages ago! lol!
This particular cake is an order made for a
Birthday Celebration....... along with 50 cupcakes,
I shall post photo's later tonight of the decorated cakes,
I have done a version of this design before.....and it's one of my faves!
Thanks for looking!
