Chocolate, chocolate buttercream cupcake topped with a Malley's chocolate coffee bean and my first attempt at a faux bois chocolate disc.


My first attempt at making a faux bois chocolate disc. I didn't have dark chocolate for the base of it so I used what I had, yellow vanilla flavored coating discs. I also didn't have a wood grain tool to use for the base color so I improvised and used a icing tool used for texture in icing. I was online looking at cupcake decorating ideas and I stumbled upon the directions on how to do this on marthastewart.com and I just thought it was soo cool! I'm already thinking about the next time I try this I'm going to use green as my base color and cut out leaf shapes! Hmmm, that should be interesting.
