Ingredients

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven and make both boxes of chocolate cake mix following the package instructions.
2. Pour the batter into a loaf tin and a 9-inch (23 cm) round cake tin, or bake as cupcakes in liners.
3. Bake according to the package instructions until a skewer comes out clean. Cool completely on a wire rack, then chill for about 1 hour until firm.
4. Heat the fresh cream in a small saucepan over low heat until it just starts to simmer, or warm it in the microwave. Do not boil.
5. Finely chop one 84 g Bar-One bar and put it in a bowl. Pour the hot cream over it, leave for 5 minutes without stirring, then stir slowly until smooth and glossy. Chill until fully cool, covering the surface with cling film.
6. Once cool, whip the ganache with an electric beater until light and fluffy.
7. Cut the cooled cakes into pieces and assemble them into the number 0, or arrange the cupcakes in a 0 shape on a large board.
8. Spread a thin layer of chocolate icing over the whole cake to seal crumbs or join the cupcakes, then chill for 15 minutes.
9. Spread a thicker, smooth layer of chocolate icing. Pipe round blobs of whipped ganache over the top using a 1 cm round nozzle in a zip bag.
10. Decorate with the chocolate bars and sweets, whole or broken into pieces, then chill until needed. Slice and serve.
