Roses & Basketweave

Roses & Basketweave on Cake Central

Bottom cake is 6 in white, top is half ball pan chocolate. Cream cheese buttercream. Haven't done basketweave or a rope border in a long time - now I remember why! What a lot of work! The roses are all buttercream although a few (the best looking ones) are made with a white chocolate kiss (like a hershey kiss) center (made a/ mold). Best trick ever to use the kiss as a base! Makes roses soooo much easier & tastes great!

I love your cake! I tried the kiss trick a few nights ago and boy are you right, it makes it SO SO SO much easier! I love the shape of the cake! Really smart to make it out of a ball pan instead of mounds of icing!! Beautiful!!
