Recipe: Dark&White Chocolate Decorations for Nerma's Nutella Birthday Cake

Dear readers,

The festive holiday season is still not over for us. Yesterday was Nerma's birthday and, as always, we made a birthdays cake for our friends. The cake itself is a delicious nutella cake with almost 500 g nutella and roasted hazelnuts. However, in this post we wanted to show you how to make this cool chocolate decorations for the cake, which will make just any cake stand out:





We found this awesome idea for drawing desert lace cups with chocolate on YouTube and it inspired us to try out something similar for Nerma's cake.

I started with drawing a template.


I covered the template with baking paper, then melted dark chocolate and made an improvised pastry bag out of a sheet of baking paper. Now I was ready to start drawing the chocolate design.



I filled the empty space with melted white Milka chocolate. Then I covered it with another sheet of baking paper and let it cool down. Before it was completely stiff, I cut it in pieces with a knife.


It's not perfect but since this was a first-time experiment, I'm pretty satisfied. I hope you'll give it a try since it is really super easy!


Love,
Emina Pin It Now!
