Chocolate Cages

Join cake designer, Rachael Teufel as she takes you step by step through making a chocolate cage. Cages or chocolate wraps are much simpler to make than you might think, but there are a few steps to the process that are important for making a successful cage. In this lesson, you will learn how to apply chocolate to acetate with or without a template in order to create any pattern you desire. Download the provided template or create your own.

You will also learn how to know when the chocolate is at the right stage for wrapping and how to remove the acetate without damaging the chocolate structure. Once the wrap is in place, you’ll see how to attach fruit to a partially wrapped cake to create a spilling over effect that adds a rustic touch to a modern cake.
