25th Anniversary Cake

Another last minute cake order, but I was able to get it done. It was Dark Chocolate Cake with Strawberry Filling. 8 inch and a 6 inch round cake. I didn't have much time to do much with decorating in buttercream flowers. I was able to just do what I wanted for this cake, which sometimes makes it harder to decide, but this is what I came up with. I put real ribbon around the edges. I did use wax paper to prevent the grease from the frosting from going through, but as you can see it did anyway, so I am going to have to work on another trick for that one. I did use a new buttercream recipe and I LOVE IT! It's the Sugarshack recipe. It's not as perfect as her is in the DVD but it's the smoothest my buttercream has ever been. Thanks for looking.
