Sharmi this post is especially for your mum! :)
This I baked a few months ago for a friend's surprise baby shower.
Brazilian chocolate cake + Nutella Icing + Chocolate plastic flowers
+ coarsely crushed nuts of your choice
Cut the edges of the cake so that it is smooth and even. Do not throw the extra pieces. Crumble and save for later. Divide the cake horizontally to have two parts. Spread a generous amount of icing to sandwich the two parts and then spread the remaining over the top and sides of the cake.Sprinkle the cake crumb and some crush nuts of ur choice on the side of the cake.
The Plastic chocolate was quite a pain I must say. I had planned to abandon my trusted marzipan and decided to make a tasty baby cradle out of chocolate plastic. The plastic sure tasted great but working with it was very very difficult. In the end I did what I do very often... When plans don't work, IMPROVISE. Since we didn't know if the baby was 'blue' or 'pink', I made flowers of the two colours to keep the guessing mode on.
The result was decent in appearance but great in taste. Soft, creamy, lightly chocolately! :)
