Karlovy Lazne

In Prague, there is a five storey superclub called Karlovy Lazne dubbed "The Biggest Music Club in Middle Europe!" Quite specific geography there. Anyway, on a steno razz to the Czech Republic we visited this magical place and so for Hutch's birthday I attempted to recreate the experience in cake form (well, three floors of it anyway)

This was the first time I had used a cake stand (thanks Annie!) and it was fab! The bottom tier is a flourless chocolate cake that was very rich but very tasty - think I got the recipe off the BBC Food website. Good for coeliacs anyway! Then the other two tiers are Victoria sponges, cut to fit the shelves and then iced over. The figures are made of sugar paste, as is the disco dancefloor.

And no that's not real absinthe, so this cake lost points for authenticity.
