weighted companion cube cake

Feb 17, 2008 13:39











i wanted to make this for valentines day, but didn't get around to it until today.

i used 2 layers of chocolate cake and 1 layer of peanut butter cake. i needed to make 1.5x the buttercream recipe, but i miscalculated how much i needed to make the pink. so nevertheless, i have a lot of pink frosting leftover.
i also trimmed off enough cake to fill an 8 cup capacity tupperware. haha!

(i used 8" round cake pans and trimmed the sides off to make a square. eventually i will purchase 5 or 6 inch square pans if i ever want to make a cube cake again. the loss of all that cake sucked. or i should have said, i didn't have to make 3 batches of batter. 2 might have been plenty.
