Zebra Print Cake 2


This was one of the first cakes I made after returning to the UK from Australia, all new ingredients and all new kitchen! Inside the zebra print decoration were 2 tiers of chocolate mud cake, covered with vanilla buttercream. Again, not fun making the black icing, after I'd finished I read online that when needing black icing, it was better to start with chocolate fondant. I still haven't tried this, but I will next time!

A Simple 9" mud cake, made for my Husband's cousin, Danica. This was one of the 1st fondant cakes I made, I took me a while to make the black icing,  messy business! I found a pizza cutter really useful for cutting out the stripes and watched a 'You Tube' video to figure out how to make the bow. Not too sure about the flowers now I look back at it!!
