My oldest son's birthday is in October. We celebrated by making a fancy cake and going to an escape room.
The cake was inspired by the cover of a cookbook, with a glossy frosting and chocolate ribbons.
Prepping the ribbon was a whole other process that was fun to do.
The cake didn't turn out "book cover perfect" but tasted great anyway.
More celebrating in the next post!
By the way, here is the cookbook cover...

| Prepping milk and choc chip mixture for the glaze |

| The boiled milk and chips looks appetizing (or maybe like one of Jupiter's moons) |

| Adding the other chocolate |

| Glossy glaze finish |
