For Bleeding Heart Liberals?

Going Bridal offers something fun for a scorned lover, or those bleeding heart liberals.......

The bleedycakes are wonderful. It's a heart-shaped layer cake, with pink frosting and frou-frou Valentine-y decorations, and it is served by hacking it in two with a cleaver. Raspberry syrup then seeps out of the wound, and, in the process gets into the chocolate cake and is quite tasty. The effect is lovely. Leigh worked through a couple of iterations on it; apparently, the key is that you have to frost the inside of the crater before you fill it with syrup, so the syrup can't just seep into the cake. That's how you get good bleed.

The cake sounds great! The way to serve it though, even better! Go read!
