Pirate Cake

Before

After

It's been a while now since I last posted an entry but i'm back!!

I made this cake here for Miss S's cousin, Alec. I hope they enjoyed the cake last night after dinner.

This is my first cake after my week at PC. I was still waiting for my tools to arrive so I had to make do with whatever tools I had in my kitchen and it turned out better than I had hoped for. I've finally got my tools today - yippeedeedoodah so you can pretty much guess what i'll be up to for the next wee while.

I've put a before and after picture of the chocolate mud cake I had made for Alec's birthday. The ganached cake was a result of 2 hours of hard labour which included extra time to 'fix' the dent I had made by accident. That was the hard part, the fun part was covering the cake!! Then only to forget to sharpen the edges and cover the bottom edges of the cake.

Enjoy!
