Beautiful. It looks so delicious. How did you make the chocolate cover for the outside of the cakes?

YUMMY!!!!! It looks beautiful. I tried to do a cake very similar to this and I just coudn't the chocolate to work near as beautiful as yours!

I used 1 lb 6 oz dark chocolate (50% cocoa solids), and 1 lb 2 oz glucose syrup . Heated chocolate and syrup to 110 F (separately), then stirred together. Cooled down, put into bag overnight and used the next day.

What was the consistency of the chocolate the next day? Was it hard or moldable?

It needed kneading to soften it, so that I could roll it out. I only kneaded what was required for each tier so that it didn't take too long to become malleable

Stunning, I love the effect of this. I can't wait to try it out.

I really like this cake. It's elegant and yet still a bit casual.

OMG. It's so beautiful!!
