Baked a Blackforest cake using Florence's recipe over last weekend for my hb 35th Birthday.

Although it not very nice decorate but i'm quite happy with the overall result as it my 1st attempt on Birthday Cake - Sponge Cake. Definately need to brush up my piping skill, coating the cream and many many more.

I even forgotten to trim off the top part - Dome that's why it seem that the cherry cant stay in place well....

The cake is bake using a 8" round baking tin coating with Fresh Cream and Pitted Dark Cherries (Internal filling)....on the external deco, I'm using the Whole Cherry w/o stem that i got from Phoon Huat Geylang. The surrounding & Middle area are coated with Cocoa Block Shave.

My son birthday is coming also...so guess got to consider what to bake for him inorder to finish off those cherries in fridge.
