Swan Cake

 




Swan Lake is a fabulous Russian ballet. The last time I saw it was in an amazing theater in St Petersburg, Russia a few years ago. This swan cake is in commemoration of great memories of  the days of carefree travels.  Hoping for traveling again, soon.

The cake was fun to make. It is an almond cake with almond mascarpone filling. The feathers were made of white chocolate. Yum!





“His own image; no longer a dark, gray bird, ugly and disagreeable to look at, but a graceful and beautiful swan. To be born in a duck's nest, in a farmyard, is of no consequence to a bird, if it is hatched from a swan's egg.”

― Hans Christian Andersen, The Ugly Duckling
