I was asked to help out a friend with a Twilight Inspired 21st birthday Party. Needless to say this was rather fun. She wanted a chocolate mud cake with a chess board on it, 2 chess pieces (white queen and red pawn), red ribbon, a frilly tulip and a red apple.
For the Chess Pieces, i used a chocolate chess piece mould (http://www.robertsconfectionery.com.au/)
It took a few attempts but i managed to make 2 chess pieces that didn't look too bad.
The cake was a little bit harder, trying to think of how i was going to make the chess board, in the end I used white icing and then painted on the black squares with black food colouring
and Lastly she wanted cupcakes that looked like they had been bitten into by a vampire, this was the best thing to make, after 2 trial batches to figure out how to make them, We settled on the scoop and and fill method.
Here is the cake and cupcakes all set up at the party venue
and finally here is jayde enjoying her cake

HAPPY 21ST JAYDE!!
