They're white chocolate mud cake, the mixture was really weird, but the cakes turned out so yummy mmm, with raspberry buttercream, I then put some pink fondant smiley faces on the top to signify my happiness in getting better hehe, although there is a shocked face in there somewhere haha..wondering why I'm not fully better yet!! After making the cakes I had to flop on the sofa for a bit, who knew that baking could be such a tiring experience!
Anyway its been a while so here we go with the pictures and the recipe :)
