Chocolate gift bow

This week I was asked by a lovely lady who lives interstate to bake a cake for her son who has recently moved here, and was celebrating his birthday. Here was what I managed with only 1 day's notice. It's a chocolate mud cake with chocolate ganache, decorated with a choc peppermint gift bow.
The best part was delivering the cake...none of his workmates knew it was his birthday, so it was a great surprise - for all of them!
