This was the second graduation cake that I made for my husband. The first was the Hitchhiker's Guide themed one in my photos. I had to assemble this cake in Tucson in 104F heat. I was worried that it was going to melt since the DH wanted Frostin Pride. Luckily it held up pretty well. Cake was cinnamon with chocolate mousse filling (made from Pastry Pride mixed with instant chocolate pudding). Cap was an almond cake decorated with black fondant. Next to the cap is the hood that PhD's get at graduation
