Oh fuckity fuck look what I did to the cake!

[Smellbellina]

It's supposed to be chocolate cake with chocolate ganache, the cake is barely an inch thick and the ganache is everywhere but there is increasingly less of it on the cake!
Can I style is out by chucking strawberries and cream on top? Pretend a ganache plate is a 'thing'?
This is why I swore never to inflict another homemade birthday cake upon the DC.
It looks like a cow's turd

Oh dear. Squirts cream round the edges? Can you transfer it to a different plate?

Big fat Strawberries round the edges?

Does it help if I say that I would eat it?

Oh dear. Cut round it and put it on a new plate, then pile high with strawberries. Unless you want to try reusing the ganache?

It looks delicious! How old is DC?

Chop it into cubes, get some choc sauce and ice cream and do birthday sundaes?

Try to inject orange favouring/peel, let it set and call it a giant Jaffa cake!

Yes Raspberry it does!
I don't think I can get it of the plate it's already had chunks fall off so I sort of squished it back together again. I thought the ganache would cover it
Fecking ganache

Fuck it, just eat it & buy a new one

Yeah I still want to eat it too. Looks yum.

It looks lovely op, pop some strawberries around the edge, some squirts cream on top and crumble a flake on it! Yum 👅

Chop it all up and put it in a trifle bowl with whipped cream on top.

Chocolate trifle innit.

I would either chip into cubes and make up skewers with strawberries and the cake to dip in the sauce.

Or

Use it to crumble on ice cream cones, a pack of bought cupcakes and drizzle with the ganache

Or make into sundaes

I bet it tastes delicious though.

If you tied a ribbon round it, it would look like a hat?

Yep,I'd eat it . Cake is very forgiving - chocolate cake,strawberries,cream - what's not to like?

Stick it in the freezer then scoop the ganache off the plate and back onto the cake.

Whipped cream, strawberries, raspberries and a bit of grated chocolate will transform it. Don't forget it will have candles too!

Looks like a giant Minstrel to me - delicious!

She's 7 Elle I don't think she'll mind, she's more of a "it's what it tastes like" sort.
But it's for a family party, it's embarrassing, everyone else makes amazing, professional looking cakes. I make what appears to be a cow pat.

Style it up with whipped cream and strawberries in the top - no-one will ever notice the difference!

Get some maltesers and stick them on top.

I'd still eat it too. Chocolate is chocolate.

I do like the Jaffa cake idea

It could be worse, it could be a lemon drizzle cake

Raspberries would be even better.

Lots of choc fingers around outside - dug into ganache, empty tin of celebrations/ roses/ malteesers into space on top. Full depth best cake ever!

Call it 'mud slide cake'. It's the latest thing!
