I promise the next post will contain a new recipe, something seasonal, perhaps. But now I’ve got only time for a photo series of another decorated birthday cake. I hope you don’t mind. And thank you, all of you, who left such lovely comments on my previous post. I’m very much obliged to each and everyone!
Deep inside of this thing are two chocolate cake and ganache sandwiches (four thin chocolate layers in total) with a crisp hazelnut meringue and Swiss vanilla buttercream between them. Frosting is the same vanilla buttercream.
Meringue is not what I particularly like to put under the fondant. But the client was persuasive. I just kept the cake in the fridge all the time, taking it off for a short period of time to attach the ribbons, bow, and circle cut-outs.

What a cool birthday cake! I like the idea with the balloons, are those on wire or is that gum? Either way that is simply amazing. I agree with Amanda…that’s tons of fondant! Keep up the awesome work!

Thank you, everybody, for your kind comments! I am really touched.
Erika, thank you. It’s stiff wire that I wrapped into white florist’s tape. This stuff can be found in any craft store.
