Chocolate and Mint.... what a yummy combination







I had considered making a cake for the many June birthdays we have in the Rich family since most of them were going to be together this year. My sister in-law called shortly after and asked if I would make a bday cake for her while she was there. It was her first pregnancy and she requested a baby themed cake to announce her pregnancy to everyone. That lasted about a week until she couldn't wait any longer and told everyone she was expecting. So we went back to plan A for the June bday cake but I added a special surprise for her in the box on top.

I had seen a picture of a cake I wanted to try but I did not have the same equipment to make it exact. So I used what I had and got creative. I also added the chocolate box on top for the surprise. This was the first time I had tried modeling chocolate and I had fun with it. Very easy to make, only two ingredients. The top layer was a chocolate mint layer, the bottom was a cherry chocolate layer.
