I know I said I would stop with the red and green but apparently I was totally lying. Sorry.
I made a white cake, tinted some frosting red and green, then melted some chocolate. Have you ever made chocolate curls? I had tried once before. It was a major fail. I am pretty sure there were even some comments mocking my skills, and if they werent totally right I might have been upset.
Ok, so looks like I still have not mastered this technique. I could not get one single perfect swirly curl.
I blame the red candy melts I used. And the warm December weather. And that one boy in 2nd grade who called me 4-eyes. *cough*
Clearly I have issues.
In addition to sharing this sweet little Christmas cake with you, I also wanted to share a couple other cakes that I think you would enjoy!
I can’t help but be drawn to the beauty of the red, white & green color palate and you will see that most of my Christmas cakes fall inline with that theme!
Red Velvet Cake with Peppermint Whipped Cream
Christmas Surprise-Inside Cake!
Christmas JOY Surprise-Inside Cake
Christmas Tree Ruffle Cake with a Surprise Inside
Hope you will enjoy at least one of these festive cakes!
im here for the cake!
but a cute new phone would surface 🙂
I want to make this cake today. I too am curl challenged but I think I can give it a try. If nothing else I can add chocolate crumbs on top.
I would love to win the phone for the excellent battery life. What a blessing a new phone would be!
This. looks. incredible! Way too pretty to eat (but I think I could manage it anyway, lol).
The long battery life sounds awesome!! Always worrying about my phone dying on me…
Definetly the camera. This cake is absolutely perfect! I’ve been looking for a christmas cake. It looks awesome. And those curls are way better than what I would have done.
I have to say the HD display will make reading all of the fabulous food blogs even better!
The awesome camera! I won’t have to carry around a camera too to get good pictures of my kiddos when we are out!
Your cake is absolutely gorgeous! I wish I could have a slice.
Very festive cake! Hopefully I can give the curly chocolate a try sooon! 🙂
OMG that is gorgeous! Love the cake and your sides are so smooth! Totally jealous!
