This is our 13th wedding anniversary cake – a delicious chocolate cake filled with chocolate ganache, chocolate mousse and wild berry mousse. The frosting is the chocolate ganache buttercream I shared with you before. Also, I sprayed the cake with a thin layer of tempered chocolate. I fell in love with the velvet texture I […]
