I made this for my boyfriends birthday and he loved it! 🙂 I also added some cake pops in the shape of the candy crush candies with the cake off cuts. Thanks so much for this recipe it’s been one of my favourite cakes to make 🙂
Hi Anne,
I love this cake and will be making it for my mother’s b’day. How long would the chocolate/fondant candies last once they are put together? I was hoping to make them a couple of weeks in advance, and assemble on the day, as we live in different states. Would they still be OK to use if kept in the fridge?
Thanks – love your videos 🙂
Hi Amanda, If you want to make the fondant chocolate pieces in advance, a week or so ahead should be fine. What you don’t want is for the chocolate to ‘sweat’. Except for the freckle, I would suggest completely covering the chocolate in fondant so it is sealed in to keep it fresh and store in a cool dry place so the fondant dries out nicely. Chocolate on it’s own keeps quite well but if it gets too warm you will get the oil impacting the fondant. Don’t add your shine spray till the day of presentation.
Thanks Ann, I left the fondant out to dry, and freckle in the fridge. Had a couple of modifications to the cake, but overall my mum was impressed. Thanks for your awesome tutorials 🙂
Hi Amanda, Your cake turned out fabulously! Well done!
