Vintage Birdcage Cake

I made this cake for a 40th birthday party, having wanted to do a birdcage cake for ages, and I am really pleased with the way it turned out (despite having several cake disasters with it along the way)! The cake is chocolate/ganache on the lower tier and lemon with lemon buttercream/raspberry jam and white choc ganache under fondant on the top. The design was inspired by a lovely cake by McGreevy's Cakes and I also found Zoe Clark's fab book "Cake Decorating at Home" (which has instructions for a birdcage cake) very helpful in making this!
