Chocolate Mudslide Cake Truffles

"Thursday Cake" - My First Attempt at Modeling Chocolate

I made a cake this past weekend for my friend Sydney's birthday, and as we were eating and celebrating, the girls commented that I should make cakes for every occasion we have. I mentioned that there are so many different techniques I want to try, and just need an excuse, so Emily suggested Thursday as the next occasion to celebrate... thus, "Thursday Cake" has been born... I decided to attempt something I have not yet tried to use... modeling chocolate. It turned out better than expected, but not as great as I hoped. Oh well, that is what practice is for.

And yes, I did eventually clean off the excess powdered sugar. :)
