Candy Cane Cake

For Christmas this year, I wanted to something more than just a cake. I've been making a lot of different cakes, not really flavors (we're a chocolate family after all) but shapes. In looking online, I found a site with some nifty cakes I'll never make because I refuse to spend an entire day on 1 cake!

But I did find this little gem and it's what we're having with Christmas dinner. Well, maybe afterwards. :) And minus the fondant, because I'm sure I can make soemthing else and really don't like fondant. It's such a crutch on cake making and has a nasty taste.Pppssst...have you entered my Title Contest?
