seven | not quite

Not bad, but not great. My first attempt at something like these works of art... My big mistake was using a sticky icing/frosting - of course, when I tried to remove the template, it was stuck to the icing, so the sugar ended up all messy and smudged.

I used the chocolate cake recipe from this book. It called for 8 inch cake tins. I only had 9 inch tins, and of course, the cake ended up too dry. Ah well, live and learn.
