Mole cake with mocha filling
I made this cake for my mother's birthday, who digs the garden just as diligently and with joy as this mole. She also loves coffee, which is why I chose a mocha filling.

Birthday cake for garden fans
06/2018 I based the look of the little mole on "the little mole" from the Czech children's series . The "earth" he looks out of is made of crumbled Oreo cookies.
The cake is covered with fondant and decorated with a garden fence on the edge. I cut out the pink and purple flowers with fondant punches .

Mocha cream filling (chef - rose marilis)
Ingredients:
800 ml whipped cream
110 g chocolate, mocha or bittersweet
2 tbsp coffee powder, soluble
4 packs of cream stiffener

The day before, put the cream for the filling in a saucepan and slowly bring it to the boil while stirring.
Melt the chocolate, broken into pieces, stir in the instant coffee and refrigerate overnight.

Fill the cake with the mixture, but do not spread it if you are using fondant.
I then covered the cake with chocolate buttercream suitable for fondant.
For this you need:
200 g dark chocolate
150 ml cream
100 g soft butter
80 g powdered sugar Make a ganache with the chocolate and cream. Cream the butter with the powdered sugar and gradually add the ganache while stirring.
