Coolest Chocolate Bar Cake

I came up with the idea for this chocolate bar cake because I wanted to make a special cake for a friend’s birthday. She is Norwegian and she loves chocolate, so I decided to create a replica of one of her favorite chocolate bars in cake form.

How I Made My Friend’s Chocolate Bar Cake

• The bar I chose to replicate had hazelnuts in it, so I made a hazelnut cake with a mocha buttercream frosting in a 13 x 9 baking pan.
• Originally I was just going to paint the wrapper to look like the actual one, but as I got into the process of designing the cake I decided to give it some dimension and make it as an opened bar to reveal the “chocolate.”
• I made a scale template of the bar and cut out all of the large letters, the logo and the flowers in fondant and painted them.
• I painted the mountains, the bar background and the back of the logo directly onto the light blue fondant.
• For the inside I made the individual pieces to sit on top of the wrapped cake.
• I made a template of the crane and embossed it into the fondant pieces with the head of a pin.

The cake wasn’t perfect but my friend loved it.
