KFC BUCKET CAKE
I am very used to making girly cakes with flowers, fairies, butterflies and pastel buttercream but I also get asked to make some interesting cakes for boys (or in this case men). It is obvious the birthday celebrant likes KFC so his friends asked me to make a replica of a bucket of the food chains' famous chicken. The "chicken" on top is made of fondant and the Colonel's face is handpainted with food colouring. It is made of belgian chocolate mud cake- it took 3 cake rounds glued together with chocolate ganache and stacked on top of each other. The whole cake was about 14 inches tall and weighed close to 7 kg!
