Hi all
My brothers birthday is on friday. His girlfriend wants me to make a cake for him using her recipe. It's a double chocolate cake. I'm making two 9 x13 cakes. She said it needs no frosting. Any suggestions on how to decorate this-pictures would be greatly appreciated also. I've thought about using the cake cut up into serving sizes, arranging them on a cake plate with chocolate covered strawberries.
I know you'll give me some great ideas!!!
Chocolate cake is very well accented by a doillie and dusting of powdered sugar.
if you don't have a doillie, you can do a checkerboard kind of pattern.
Cut strip of paper about 1" wide and longer than the width of the cake. Lay them out about 1' apart, making stripes on the cake.
Dust the exposed part with sifted cocoa. Remove the strips, shake off the excess cocoa and put them back on the cake in the other direction. Now sift powdered sugar over the exposed parts.(some will already have cocoa.
The pattern will have some plain, some sugar, some cocoa and some both.
No frosting!! ![]()
lol. j/k
I agree with JoAnnB, you can add powdered sugar to the top through a doily. Very pretty and I'm sure will taste great!
