M Dot Birthday Cake

 This cake was ordered for a birthday boy for the office. I made him an "M Dot" cake. What is M Dot? Well, Andrew (the birthday boy) did his first Ironman triathlon in Melbourne on 24th March 2013. The Ironman triathlon starts with 3.8km swim in the sea, 180km bike ride and ends with 42.2km of running. Yes! absolutely crazy! oops! I mean absolutely amazing! It was a lifetime goal of his and he did it in less than 12 hours! Congratulations!! You did so well!!

M Dot is the logo for the Ironman, so I thought maybe it would be nice to celebrate his birthday with a note of Congratulations on his great achievement. 

Just out of oven
I baked a rich chocolate cake in a square tin and 2 small round tins. The cake was filled with chocolate ganache and chocolate glaze over the cake. Very chocolatey cake. I tried a small piece from the cut out of the "M". I had to try a little to make sure the quality of the cake was good, right? hehehe... that is my justification.

Happy Birthday Andrew!
 Hope he and his colleagues enjoyed the cake as much as I did making it. Below is a photo he sent me with half the M gone.
