Sour Cream Walnut Cake
[...] Used the same recipe (recipe posted earlier) for this cake, only difference is the this small cake is frosted with Coffee flavored whipping cream!
This cake is to be shared with my beloved mommy and myself on Mother's Day. Both of us loves Coffee ;-)
The decorations all made from chocolate (white and dark chocolate). This was my 1st attempt in making chocolate roses using chocolate plastique. Just in case you are new to this, chocolate plastique aka modeling chocolate is a mixture of chocolate and corn syrup (or liquid glucose).
It is advisable to make this much earlier if planning to use it as part of the decoration as it needs a long time to get harden, pliable and rolled out for modeling.
There are many recipes out there when you google for chocolate plastique/chocolate roses, e.g. baking911, Baking Obsession, AboutDotCom Candy. All with detailed tutorials. You may want to consider to give it a try ^^
Verdict: Glad that both my mommy and sister like it so much (only downside is that it lacks of walnuts) and the whipping cream is a perfect match with the cake!
