If you are looking at having a cake made by me cake flavours and contact details can be found on the
Inspired By Michelle
page.
All my cakes have either dark chocolate or white chocolate ganache layers and coating underneath the rolled fondant. You want to make your own cakes you can find both the ganache recipes in my
fillings and frosting pages.
I love designing birthday cakes, sydney areas all covered as delivery or pick-up can be arranged. I have included some photos of my recent cakes to help you with your own birthday cake ideas - but remember the idea is to create a cake that is uniquely yours.
