To get that glossy finish, you will want to use a recipe for Chocolate Ganache Glaze: http://bit.ly/1FgkVpY. You will likely want to double the recipe, depending on how thick you want the frosting to be. Also, feel free to play with the ratio of chocolate to cream. 2 parts chocolate to 1 part cream will give you a frosting that is soft and glossy but will hold rough designs, like the rustic swirls you see pictured on that cake. Adding more cream will make it more of a pourable glaze whereas reducing the chocolate will make it more like a thick spread. Adjust as you wish! Happy cake baking! Kye@KAF
