Rose in Chocolate

11-13-10
A cake for a woman who loves the outdoors as well as chocolate. The request was simple, but the task proved complicated, as a ran through many designs in my head. I think I captured it nicely with this final design being a chocolate lover's delight. Chocolate frosting covers a chocolate cake hill that has been lovingly situated with home made molded chocolates. Atop that hill in the middle of a small, green, grassy butter cream pasture lays a chocolate cake made to mimic a terracotta pot. A single rose colored gumpaste rose rests inside with plenty of chocolate frosting soil and a few hand painted, glistening fondant leaves. The sides of the cake are simple, yet elegant with the hint of nature also in the form of hand made chocolate leaves.
