Let them eat heart cake

posted by [personal profile] rivers_bend at 06:03pm on 15/02/2013 under ,
One of the women I work with has decided she's had enough of her long commute, so today was her last day. We had a little pot-luck thing for lunch, and I decided I had to make this cake. Only I made the hearts chocolate instead of pink. It came out really well, and I was excited.

Instead of food colouring for the first cake, I added 4 heaped tablespoons cocoa powder to the mix, and an extra tablespoon of milk. And for the frosting, I mixed the juice of one clementine with enough powdered sugar to make a thick glaze (maybe 1.5 cups? idek. I mostly just tossed some in a bowl.)

That is really cool! I don't think I'd have the patience to do it myself.

That's amazing! xx

OMG that is so cool! So do you need to cut the pieces of the finished cake to approximately the same width as the heart-pieces, or does it all kind of flow together? THIS SEEMS SO MAGICAL TO ME.
