Mums Birdcage Birthday Cake

Birdcage Cake made for my Mums birthday.

This was a 6” cake, and was over 10” tall!!!

I wasn’t intending it to turn out this big, but it turned out to be on the large size, and to think I brought a dummy cake because I didn’t think it was going to be tall enough…..have no idea what I was thinking!!
Before I put on the decorations I was not loving this cake at all, but when it was finished it grew on me.
Would love to do another one…but on a much smaller scale.

Bottom was Baileys White Chocolate Mud, middle and dome were Red Velvet cake, and all were layered and filled with white choc ganache.
