Notes

While this is a 15 minus video, Cooking the cake [Minus baking time and resting time] and decorating time will take you about 4 hours. I would recommend making this cake 2 days before the event. Being a mud cake, you can even make it 4 days beforehand and continue to store it [covered with ganache and fondant] at room temperature.
