This is the cake I made for an Irishman who LOVES coffee on his birthday.
Please keep in mind that this was my first ever sculptural cake, and I made it in a bit of a rush.
After cutting, my recipes were revealed. Top layer: Mocha, bottom layer and saucer: cappuccino. Nummy! And when they cut into it, the sauce in the top ran down into the cake in delicious streams.
The "beans at the bottom of the saucer are mocha m&ms, and my hand-crafted Turkish coffee-flavored candy coffee beans (flavored royal icing). The icing itself is Irish cream flavored, and the dark liquid inside the cup is a special syrup made from chocolate and Jameson's Irish Whiskey. (He liked his coffee black, so no creamy swirls)
The stand for this cake is a wall mirror, measuring about 2 foot across. this cake served over 40 people, with leftovers. You can see the size of the cake in comparison to the carving knife they decided to cut it with! LOL
