Chocolate Scrollwork On Ivory

Chocolate Scrollwork On Ivory on Cake Central

Design taken from Martha Stewart's China Pattern Cake series from the Weddings mag. Done in ivory white chocolate fondant (purchased, no recipe). Cake was triple-layer Dark Chocolate Cake brushed with Grand Marnier simple syrup, filled with double layers of fresh raspberries and milk chocolate buttercream. I did the scrollwork all by hand in melted chocolate. Tiers are 5.5" tall each. 6"/8"/10"/12". I intended to use my smaller ivory cake stand, but the cake weighed over 65 lbs, so had to use sturdier one.
