I have just made a cake for my auntie's birthday this weekend. Her favourite thing are pigs. So I decided to make a pigs head cake for her. The actual cake is chocolate and I used a recipe from Lorraine Pascale's book 'Baking made easy' I did the 'Just don't give a damn chocolate cake' recipe as its easy to make and tastes yummy. I then iced my cake board green and left both cake and board over night. I then coloured some icing pink and then left that whilst I made the chocolate buttercream and levelled and shaped the cake. I then iced it and left over night. I then decorated the cake with the finishing touches.
Here's the cake... Let me know what you think.
Thank you V xxx
