Chocolate Cake is an all time kid's favorite time-pass. Every flavor in which cake could be possibly made just tastes perfect . Kids can have it every day, without fail. So why not to make it in home, freshly prepared and easy recipe, in much hygienic manner. Making cake is always not as easy as eating cakes :-) It needs lot of trial to get perfect balance between quantity, temperature, and ingredients. Sometimes your cake will burn, sometime u will get an over-baked one (which spoils the sponginess of cake), or sometime it will be under-cooked (not cook from inside)...I do not want to scare you but all I wanna say that you have to be little conscious and alert while preparing this recipe... if you are prepared to take this challenge then have a look on the recipe of simple and tasty chocolate ganache cake. Here for my cake I have also made chocolate buttercream for the cake. Let’s prepare everything one by one….

Time to decorate the cake

Take out cake from the freeze and put your cake on a steel plate, use heavy bowl as a stand. You can decorate cake with your choice. In this cake decorate it by chocolate syrup and then put lots of grated dark chocolate and white chocolate or chocolate bolls or colored chocolate bolls.(for extra flavor and look).You can also take piping bag with star nozzle and put lots of butter cream in that bag and decorate the top of the cake with chocolate cream. Enjoy…. Happy eating

Tips:

·        Always grease the container and put butter paper otherwise cake can burn.

·        Before using the sponge cake for icing, make sure that cake is completely cooled down.

·        Use shifted and very fine sugar powder for making buttercream.

·        While pouring chocolate ganache on the cake, put butter paper below the cake so the excess of ganache can be used again.
