Today we had our Coles family Easter dinner and I thought that since it was pretty close to my cousin Josh's birthday that we would celebrate. Especially because the whole family was together and it is a major milestone turning 30. Oh to be 30 again!
I wanted to do something big and over the top so I started with the idea of cheesecake as the filling. Originally, I was going to do a very tall 5 layer 8" cake but then I thought it would be really difficult to cut. I decided on a two tiered cake.
Each tier consisted of three layers, chocolate cake, cheese cake and chocolate cake. Both were covered in a salted caramel icing. Then I drizzled chocolate ganache and homemade caramel sauce over the top of each tier. Added some more salted caramel icing topped with 30 Ferrero Rochers chocolates.
For the topper I cut out a 3 and 0 from card stock and laminated them then attached them to bamboo skewers. Josh was able to take the top tier home and only served the bottom tier. It was definitely a decadent cake!
Happy Birthday Josh!
