Help - Recipes

Hi,

I’m still new at cake making decorating. The two I’ve made have been both Catherine Ruehle’s gluten free chocolate cake with chocolate ganache then covered in fondant.

I’m making a 2 tiered 80’s cake with as well as a separate cake (record player).

Although I’ve really taken to cake decorating I need to learn a lot more about cooking cakes/flavours etc.

Can you please suggest recipes/websites for cake recipes and popular/recommended flavours. I don’t know what to make for the 2 tiered cake. I’ve decided to make the GF Choc cake I’ve made above for the record player but have no idea what to do for the other 2 cakes. There will be a mixed crowd so do not want to do all cakes GF.

I also does the cake have to be a certain texture to have fondant on it? If so please suggest a suitable recipes.

Thanks in advanced for helping me out!
