I made this chocolate rum cake layer cake with chocolate buttercream as my final project for my first cake decorating class. I felt like I owed my husband a little something for being so patient with me while I took this course and since his fraternity, Omega Psi Phi, was celebrating their centennial, I used that as the inspiration behind my design.
Although the frosting looks chocolate in the picture, it was actually a deep purple. I piped the fraternity motto, "Friendship is Essential to the Soul" and the Omega symbol with 20 pearls on the top in yellow buttercream frosting. Around the base of the cake are clusters of their official flower, african violets.
