We were asked by Ogechi to design and create a kola nut themed cake for her dad's birthday. If you're not familiar with the Kolanut, it's the fruit of the kola tree. It has a bitter flavor and contains caffeine. It is chewed in many West African countries- individually or in a group setting. It is often used ceremonially, presented to chiefs or presented to guests.

Everything on the cake is edible. The kolanuts were handcrafted out of fondant. Same for the basket.

The cake was vanilla pound cake with vanilla filling.
Feel free to browse this site for more traditional themed cakes.
Have a sweet week!
