Omg I love it, iv always been intrigued by surprise cakes and thought it was way out my league, I think I could manage this! Really going to try this one, do you use anything inbetween each slice of pink heart or just pack tightly?

Also is that a chocolate brown mixture? And how to you stop the hearts sinking when packing them in? Is the brown mixture anything special to aid the cooking or placement? Sorry for all questions, I'm all excited now :)

Hi Louiselovesbaking! Thanks. I just used a plain chocolate cake batter, nothing special about it. The pieces just sort of sit there. And yes, the pieces need to be tightly together, that is why I have cut them at the angle so that they fit snug!! I will try to post this in tutorials too so that I can say more about it.

Thank you, ye fab idea slicing cake then cutting heart of out slice. Going to go out and get a heart cutter next week :)

Thank you. I love it!

Thank you for showing this! Always wondered how it works.
