Ingredients:
-8″ round chocolate cake https://youtu.be/bbDAJZhpvbo
-chocolate buttercream https://youtu.be/948maLMHQy0
-chocolate ganache https://youtu.be/UFW59OLLoDc
-assorted chocolates of various sizes
Procedure:
1.Cover prepared cake in chocolate buttercream.
2.Pour chocolate ganache on top of the cake and allow to drip down the sides.
3.Sort chocolates according to size. Place the longest (tallest) chocolates together in the center of the cake, pressing them down so they stand vertically. While working outwards toward the edge of the cake, use the chocolates that decrease in height/length.
4.While adding chocolates around the outside edge, point the chocolates outwards so they appear to be exploding from the edges of the cake.
5.To make chocolates that explode above the cake, use stainless steel or copper wire. Wrap the wire around a cylindrical tool/utensil to create a coil. Insert one end of the wire into the chocolate and the other into the cake.
6.Using small chocolates, place a border around the bottom of the cake. Use additional buttercream to secure to the side of the cake.
7.Cake can be kept in the fridge and is best consumed within 2-3 days.
