My First Wedding Cake

I made my second tiered cake this weekend, I would post my first this time. Here it is:



I made this cake for my husband's sister's wedding. It is chocolate cake with chocolate mousse filling and frosted in chocolate buttercream. I surrounded the tiers in dark and white chocolate truffles.

  1. That looks so yummy!

    I've never done a wedding cake, only showers and one anniversary.

    That's impressive!

  2. I'm impressed! I'm too much of a stress bucket to try a wedding cake like this. Heck a one tiered cake would be a challenge for me. I know they loved it. How lucky that they have you in the family to make such beautiful cakes for all their past and upcoming occasions.

    I tired to make an Effile Tower cake once and let me tell you that was a disater and I haven't made a cake of any kind since then.

  6. That cake looks delicious. I can't help but wonder how many little fingers waited patiently to sneak one of those truffles when no one else was looking!
