Box Of Chocolates
This is my first attempt at this cake. It was definitely a learning experience, but I'm so proud of the turnout! There is an 8" square cake inside the box. The cake is iced in buttercream and pastillage box sides (painted with Gold Lusterdust) and pressed into the buttercream. The chocolates are cake truffles. The tissue is pink MMF.
Perfect! It really looks like a box of Chocolate's.
WOW! What a great job! It's gorgous!!!
really lovely, and looks so good now I want to go eat some chocolate...!
I love it! I keep trying to come up with reasons to make it. First I was gonna make it for a birthday that is several months away. Then I thought to make it as a Christmas present and New Year's Eve suprise for a cake order for chocolate bourbon cake. I am going to put chocolate bourbon truffles in the box. Can't wait Thank you so much fo sharing! Now what exactly is pastillage . . .?
Pastillage is like fondant without the ingredients that keep fondant soft. It dried hard and much faster than fondant (so keep it wrapped). I was so intimidate by it, but it was SO EASY to work with!
WONDERFUL!!! This is going into my favorites. Now - a reason to make it.......
Beautiful cake. It really does look like a box of chocolates.
Really creative and well-done.
So beautiful! It's almost too pretty to eat (but I'm sure it was amazing)!
Wow! I want to try this. Thanks for sharing. I'm a novice, so can you tell me what's MMF?
MMF is Marshmallow Fondant
