Birthday cake

Birthday cake for my daughter's best friend. Chocolate cake filled with blackberry curd covered in a mix of milk & dark chocolate ganache. Didn't get it as smooth as I would have like but still happy with it. My daughter is going to surprise her friend with this tomorrow. Hopefully she likes it.

Comment by Goreti on August 4, 2013 at 12:50pm: You can't really tell in the picture by I mixed gold & a little orange. I've had those stencils for so long but had never used. Figured I would give it a try.

Comment by Amy Snyder on August 4, 2013 at 12:25pm: Very nice. And congrats on making it to the top 3 in cakes decor. :-D

Comment by Betty on August 3, 2013 at 3:28pm: Simply beautiful!!!! And it looks delicious too.

Comment by Goreti on August 3, 2013 at 2:54pm: I don't have that kind of patience either. I guess if it was for a paying customer I might have tried a little harder. I think for a free birthday cake it looks pretty good. Funny thing is I have the patience for the flowers. I don't mind spending a lot of time doing them.

Comment by Katy Nott on August 3, 2013 at 2:45pm: Watched the vid Goreti. She does a fantastic job, but heck what a lot of faffing about! No way do I have that kind of patience..............

Comment by Katy Nott on August 3, 2013 at 2:22pm: Gosh - I didn't realise it was a stencil, you did it really well (I'm a bit messy with them lol!). Thanks for the link, I'll check it out.

Comment by Goreti on August 3, 2013 at 2:19pm: Thank you both. @Katy, the accent was done with a stencil & luster dust. I wanted to try the stencils since I have never used them. As far as the ganache, I used this tutorial http://www.threelittleblackbirds.com/2012/10/simply-ganache-a-tutor...

I need to be a little more patient and take more time but after awhile I just say the heck with it. I'm sure if I practiced I could get it smoother.
