Chocolate banana cake

Finally, I am using this tool that I bought some months ago, to make chocolate fence to decorate my cake.

I made a banana cake and frosted it with chocolate whipping cream and covered the sides of the cake with this chocolate fence. And added some flowers on top.

A few months back, I saw Martha Stewart making this cake which she called "Secret Garden". The top part of the cake was actually a flower bed with a variety of flowers and a "pebble" walkway. The garden even comes with a garden hose to water the flowers! Since then, I have been looking for some thing that I can use to make the fence. I even bought some Rocky biscuits to make the fence. But that didn't really look nice. And finally, I found this chocolate mould that comes in the shape of fence sticks. All I had to do was to melt the chocolate and pour it into the mould. When it hardens, stick them all around the cake.
