Aufruf Basket

Aufruf Basket on Cake Central

This was the first of three cakes I made for a celebration of the 70th anniversary of my father-in-law's Bar Mitzvah. Tradition is to pass a basket of candy and when the Bar Mitzvah boy finishes chanting his portion of Torah (Hebrew Bible) to throw candy at him to wish him a sweet life. This was my first basket weave and the "candy" was very small cakeballs wrapped in squares of natually colored fondant. The cake was orange cake with Grand Marnier flavored chocolate Mousseline "Buttercream"
