Birthday Suitcase Cake


This cake was done for a friend's birthday. A suitcase with "stickers" of the countries he has visited, speaks the language, or loves.

Gluten free chocolate cake using my fave chocolate cake recipe subbing in Bob's red mill gluten free flour and some xantham gum. Filled with nutella buttercream, coated in a ganache flavored with hazelnut, & covered in fondant. The "stickers" are made from sugarveil.

Whenever I try to calculate how much cake to make I seem to overshoot by a LOT. There was about half left after giving out some pretty decent size pieces. Well, too much cake is always better than too little!
