Chocolate Cake for my Friend's 16th...

                                                       

Chocolate cake for my friend's 16th birthday!

Okay so my chocolate cake lover of a friend (previously mentioned as Mooise...) 's birthday is soon to arrive and I am in the midst of planning her cake. Here's the spec:

-Chocolate cake with nutella buttercream filling

-Nutella buttercream icing

-Classy look i.e buttercream swirls/flakes/curls/cigarellos

-Something different/novelty/unique

-No fondant

...any suggestions???

When describing her ideas she compared to my chocolatecakezilla.....

And although she hasn't seen this one I assume she may be reading, something a little like this?

But what about the novelty? This is the girl I designed a cow themed and smiley face cake for...

So, in searching for all this, I've been doing some research and have acquired some pretty impressive chocolate cake ideas which I just had to share!

Now...how to make these look classy and delicious...
