Caramel frosting and chocolate ganache make this cake one to remember! The bottom tier is a 12" round torted with caramel frosting and the top tier is a 9" round. I made the chocolate ganache with a three to one ratio semi-sweet chocolate to whipping cream. It was a little thick to pour but it set up well and was easy to pipe. I added a couple tablespoons of butter to the ganache to help with the shine.
All of the decorations are gumpaste. I made these a few days early so that they would dry and stand up on the cake.
Happy New Year!
And delicious it was! People want to know if I can give them your phone number....one comment was "Will she make ME one of these? I don't care how much it costs." :)
