Moist Choc Fondant Cake Step 9 – 10

  1. Place a layer of cake onto a cake board, spread with some butter icing before topping with another layer of cake. Repeat the same for icing and cake.(pic 5)
  2. Dust some cornflour on the surface and roll the fondant out to approximately 0.5cm thick, place over the cake top.
  3. Repeat rolling out the plain fondant icing to a long sheet sufficient to cover the sides of the cake.Place on the sides and press the fondant tightly. At the sealing side, trim off to allow the sides to stick properly together. Using a pair of icing pinchers, pinch to secure the joining part.
  4. Take about a ball of plain fondant, drop some pink food colouring and knead in the colour. Roll out and cut into heart shapes using the heart cutter. Brush with some water and place on the sides of the cake covering the whole cake.(pic 7-8)
  5. For the top, cut out the extra pink fondant into strips and roll them up to form roses. Lightly brush some water before placing these 5-6 roses in the centre top of the cake. Decorate some silver dredges on the cake alternately for the final effect. (pic 9-10)
