St. Patrick's day Wedding cake

So I'm (finally) back to update the end result of the St. Patrick's day wedding cake. The wedding was beautiful and fun! The cake was amazing! I was So pleased with the way it turned out, and I think everyone else was too. It was an Irish Chocolate Mint cake and it everyone said it was really really good. The entire thing got eaten! As always, I have pictures..

The filling was a creme de menthe, the cake was devils food, and the glaze was a hardened semi-sweet chocolate. The best description for this cake is 'decadent.' For decoration I used mini shamrocks that I cascaded down oposing corners in a 'waterfall' type look. I aso dusted the remaining two corners with green cake dust to give it a 'watery' appearance. I also used gold coins to keep with the theme and the larger shamrocks I made by rolling out spearmint jelly leaves and cutting out with an extra small heart shape cutter and rolling the stems by hand. The bride AND the groom were pleased with the end result, and I'm quite proud. ..And you thought I couldn't do it...

Next up, THE wedding (cup)cake!

Stay tuned!!
