Grandmaster Chess Board Cake

The cake combines a clean, modern aesthetic with realistic edible game pieces:

• Chess Board Surface: The top of the cake is designed as a black-and-white checkered chess board. The board is composed of individual black squares placed over a smooth white frosting base.

• Edible Game Pieces: A variety of 3D-sculpted chess pieces in dark brown and white sit atop the board in mid-game positions. This includes pawns, bishops, and a king or queen.

• Drip Detail: The edge of the cake features a glossy dark chocolate or ganache drip that runs down the sides of the white frosting, adding a sophisticated touch.

• Base: The cake is centered on a metallic gold circular cake board.
