Oktoberfest Celebration Cake

Oktoberfest Celebration Cake

This cake was exhausting to make, customer wanted the cake to resemble the German flag when sliced and needed it for a large event. It needed to be a full sheet, and it needed 3 layers to represent the black, red and gold of the flag. Red and Gold layers were vanilla cake, and the black layer was chocolate fudge cake, and it was covered in chocolate buttercream. The decorations included an edible image, leaves I colored and cut from gumpaste, and beer mugs and pretzels I molded in chocolate. Why was this exhausting? I don’t have a stand mixer, so…8 batches of vanilla cake batter, 4 batches of chocolate fudge cake batter, 4 batches of chocolate buttercream icing – all done with a hand mixer!
