Chocolate, Caramel, and Raspberry...

This is the 'partner' cake for the pineapple cake for work tomorrow. I personally am not a fan of of non chocolate so it was a 'poor' excuse to make a second cake... but is works :) So I made this new chocolate cake recipe that is RICH, man o man it is yummy. I took the two layers and filled them with caramel. Then after wrapping it in a coat of butter cream, I topped the cake with raspberry ganache, then drizzled more caramel on top and decorated it with butter cream and chocolate ganache detail on the side.

Turns out that ganache can be tricky to pip on the side of cake, especially if you made it a little thin for spreading on top and now you want it on the side. I 'could' have added more sugar to make it more firm, but late at night for a cake I am doing for a 'fun' I decided... its going to work :) Now to eat it!
