Working with marzipan.


Marzipan is much like the fondant icing but made from the almond nuts,its much like an under coating for the fondant and i love it because it hides the imperfections that the fondant  may reveal,its taste too is magnificent howvever i tend to use it with the clients that value rich cakes...

The black forest cake.....

One thing  i  have noticed with several  other  cakes of this kind not  made from here is that the buttercream is too wet and cannot withstand our African tropical climate hence forth during packaging they became messy with frosting sticking to the box.If you are in love with the whisked sponge cake another one of our niceties,all you have to do is jst do away with the cocoa powder and you will have your self my favorite cake!!
