This recipe is kinda overdue as I had a tough time find Hazelnut coating chocolate. I checked a few baking supplies shop and they didn't carry it. Neither did a supplier I got from Richard have it. Hence, I settled down to a modification that I did with pre-packed Hazelnut Ganache I bought from Phoon Huat. This cake has it's twist that I tried, shying away from my usual style.
1) It's a two tiered cake!
2) I did a plain sponge cake with chocolate cream to get a contrast!
This cake is just pretty even though I've got some piping skills to refine XD This cake takes about 3 -4 hours to bake for a beginner.. It took me about 2 hours to bake (: Practice makes perfect! I labelled this cake as a level 5 difficulty cake as it's two tiered. You can make it single tiered and it'll be simpler at a level 4 difficulty cake! (:

This is the other version I did previously with hazelnut coating chocolate..
