Andrea and Michael approached me about doing another cake for them and I was certainly delighted and honored to do so. Michael was very specific with what he had envisioned for his big day!
This was a chocolate cake filled with a thin layer of dulce de leche (milk caramel). It is frosted with a thin layer of chocolate buttercream and encased with chocolate ganache. The outside has organic grated coconut and written on with white chocolate. All of the chocolate used was Lindt.
Michael did not want any fruit on the cake, but with my piece I ate loads of those gorgeous strawberries pictured here. Those complimented things very well.
I love this photo because it shows you the contrast. The top very dark chocolate ganache, the bottom the dulce de leche, milk caramel, that I used for the filling inside the cake.
These photos are provided from my friends and are absolutely beautiful.

Stefanie made this gorgeous chocolate cake for my husband's birthday. He requested a chocolate cake with a filling of dulce de leche between the layers and coconut on the outside. Stefanie suggested chocolate ganache for the outer icing. It turned out to be the best chocolate cake I think I've ever eaten. The ganache was incredible, and everything came together really well. You could really taste the chocolate because nothing was overly sweet. The decoration was beautiful, too. It was the perfect birthday cake! Thank you, Stefanie, for another amazing job!
