Chocolate Cake

Chocolate Cake on Cake Central

This cake is a chocolate cake with chocolate frosting. I made it to practice some of the things I learned from this site such as the roses with the hersey's kisses in the middle, and using the upside-down method of frosting the cake. Thanks for all of the help! Sorry the picture is a little blurry.

This is a delicious looking cake. The basketweave and roses are very nice. I didn't know that roses could be made with Hershy's kiss centers; How clever!

Thanks for all of your nice comments! maisza is right - the hersey's kiss is just a substitute for a base. I used the betty crocker rich and creamy milk chocolate frosting for the whole cake. To get it to the consistency that I wanted I put it in the refridgerator if I wanted it stiffer (for the roses) and then let it sit out longer for the basketweave and borders. I had to be creative because this was the only frosting that they liked!
