7/22/2009 1 Comment Gardening-themed retirement cakeThis is a Ferrero Rocher cake (chocolate hazelnut cake filled with toasted chopped hazelnuts and chocolate hazelnut filling covered in chocolate hazelnut ganache) carved into the shape of a flower pot. The cake was then covered in a hazelnut-flavored terracotta-tinted fondant. The retirement is being celebrated by the arrival of a labradoodle puppy this coming weekend so I have added a gumpaste replica of the pup to the cake as well as a pair of gumpaste gardening gloves, a trowel and a seed packet. The flower pot was then filled with "dirt" (Oreo cookie crumbs) and filled with a variety of gumpaste flowers. I wish Sally many happy hours in the garden with her flowers and her puppy! Happy retirement! You will be dearly missed!

A garden is a planned space, usually outdoors, set aside for the display, cultivation, and enjoyment of plants and other forms of nature.
