Ingredients

Chocolate Cake
Whip Cream
Chocolate Ganache
Egg Yelow Colour Food Gel

Directions

Make a chocolate cake using a 6 inch cake tin. Line it with Ecobake baking 'n' cooking paper for better results. Bake the cake for 40 minutes in a pre-heated oven or stove. Now unmould the cake and keep it ready for frosting.
Mix chocolate ganache with whip cream and whisk until it's frothy. Use this cream for frosting the cake. You can smoothen the top and sides of the cake with a spatula or cake scraper. Transfer chocolate cream into a piping bag and cover the sides with the cream.
Again, smoothen the sides with the help of a cake scraper. Take a skewer and make a pattern as shown. Using a skewer, make a swirl pattern and draw eight lines as shown in the video.
Draw 1 line each between the two lines, like a cobweb pattern. Transfer chocolate cream into a piping bag with a 2C or closed star shape nozzle. Stroke upwards and make the base pattern as shown. With this, the base design is completed.
Practice your weaving or garland pattern on a skewer before attempting it on the cake. Take a small petal nozzle piping bag and transfer the cream into it. Make a hanging garland pattern on the top of the cake.
Mix egg yolk gel food color with whipped cream. Transfer bright yellow color cream to a No. 35 nozzle piping bag. You can use a nail to make unique sunflowers using Noor No 36 Nozzle.
If you do not have a nail, you can use a flat-base bowl or tumbler. Make small petals using the nozzle for making a sunflower. Place the sunflower on top of the cake using a knife.
Repeat the same steps to make more sunflowers. You can also make leaves using Noor 13 or small star shaped Nozzle. Use chocolate cream to make cake top border.
