What did that chocolate cake become?

First off, I did a sticky toffee sponge and coffee buttercream cake this week for an engagement party ordered by a lovely lady for her Sister (and new Brother-in-law to be). It was the first time I'd made the recipe for this sized cake- and I think I made too much! Not only was the cake bigger than expected but there was enough left over for 14 cupcakes! Oops!

(Excuse the bad picture, it was taken in 6am light before I was rushing out of the door!) It was more shimmery silver than dull grey in real life.


What became of the chocolate cake?

A quick reminder...

well...

.. you know where this is going...

... et voila. It's a bustier/corset cake for my awesome friend, Andrea's, hen night. It was a debauched affair comprising pole dancing lessons (which I am still very sore from, that is a SERIOUS workout!), a 'fireman' called Fernando ( I suspect that wasn't his real name) and burlesque/moulin rouge fancy dress. This cake, therefore, fit the theme perfectly and incidentally was surprisingly to-scale for our stunning hen!!

See, I did say it'd become something a whole lot more interesting!

p.s. this chocolate cake has magic hangover-curing abilities!
