Chocolate Wrap Cake
My first time trying the chocolate wrap technique...and it was disasterous! Somehow it turned out pretty good in the end but I made a terrible mess! I spread the chocolate too thick I think. The ends started setting up before the middle. I thought I had better attach it to the cake before it set up too much. The chocolate from the mid section gushed off everywhere when I picked it up. I spent quite a long time scraping it all off. I am surprised it looks this good :) I made this for my husband's birthday to share with the family. A great time to try new things. I think I need to practice several more times before I would be confident selling one!
Based on the look of "emmascakes" which are done MUCH better than this!
