George's Spider Web Gateaux

 Yet more of my brothers birthday cakes!! This time it was a chocolate gateaux which was decorated to the MAX! 
It started with a chocolate sponge, which was sandwiched with chocolate butter cream and black fruit jam..Then the outer was smothered in a layer of chocolate butter cream before being bedazzelled with chocolate sprinkles. The top surface of the cake was then adorned with white icing, and chocolate drizzle was used to create a web effect look.The marzipan spider was then rolled, coloured and constructed on top before the cake was finally finished with some chocolate butter cream rosette variations.
