If you are interested in reading the whole article, head on over to Cake Masters and check it out! In the interview, I tell the story of my worst cake disaster EVER and how I had to scrub a LOT of pots and pans before I was allowed to make my first wedding cake. Yep, I started out in the bakery industry as a grunt/dishwasher, emptying the grease trap, mopping the floors, and scrubbing the cake pans and Hobart attachments. It was about as un-glamorous as a pig cake in a puddle of chocolate!
By the way, the design that is wrapped around this cake is two-dimensional. It’s flat, thinly rolled modeling chocolate, cut and arranged just so to make an optical illusion. Did it fool your eyes? Make ya look twice? I hope so because that’s what I was going for.
