Basket Weave Anniversary Cake

Hi food buddies here in hive!
Today I will share how I made this basket weave anniversary cake. I will show the step by step process.

First, I put some icing or ganache on the cake board before putting the cake to serve as a glue. Place the 1st layer of the cake the put some filling, spread it evenly.

Put the last layer of the cake, put some dowel (I used plastic straw) to keep the layers in place during the delivery.

Crumb coat the cake and put the final frosting at the top.

I started the basket weave at the back, first make a line from top to bottom then short horizontal line leaving one space apart. Do this all around the cake.

I used light brown frosting and small basket weave piping tip.

At the top-side, I make some seashells boarder using the same tip.

I pipe some flower using petal tip then place it at the top of the cake.

I made five purple roses.

I put some stems at the sides of the flowers and some leaves too. I wrote the anniversary greeting in Pink frosting.

I put some dragees to add color and sprinkled with gold dust to make it more special.

The cake is coffee flavor as well as the filling.
I guess these couple are coffee lovers.
May our hearts be filled with love.
