Cake for him

Photobucket

Kue ini aku bikin atas permintaan dr abang, sebenernya aku ga pede sama sekali bikinin cake yang mau dibawa kekantor dan dibagi ketemen temen terdeket beliau, akhirnya dengan segala keberanian ce ilehh bikin juga deh cake ini. walaupunn hasilnya kurang okeh maklum amateur tapi rasanya enak lho "promosi". Gara gara kehabisan coklat parut makanya aku campur dengan meises untuk bagian luarnya, untung aja masih punya sisa stok mudik hihihihi (pdhal ditoko indonesia sini juga ada) :p


Rich and chocolaty cake with blueberry and whiped cream filing. Decorated with a dazzling layer of cherry topping and drizzled chocolate, this is best chocolate lover cake for birthday celebration. Special made for sayangku on his special day. Happy many returns of the day sayangku, may u have always good health, long life and God bless us.
