This Monkey Birthday Cake Design was for my very own cheeky Monkey. I baked a 10″ cake and one 8″ cake, the 8″ one just in a sandwich tin as I didn’t want it to be as deep as the bigger cake (very rich chocolate cake recipe).
I drew a template on to a piece of paper the same size as the bigger tin. Once the cake had cooled right down I set to work cutting the 10″ cake to the main shape of the monkey. The 2nd cake was used to give dimension to the monkeys face, ears, feet and hands. The cake was then covered in chocolate sauce and the face, feet, hands & ears were covered in a chocolate fudge.
Rolled icing was used to make the eyes, nostrils, mouth and the banana.
