2. Put all ingredients for the chocolate sauce in a high speed blender and blend until smooth. The consistency should be creamy and more watery. Pour your cream in a jar.
3. Put all ingredients for the vanilla cream in a high speed blender and blend until smooth. The consistency should be the same as of the chocolate sauce in order to be able to marble.
4. Pour your vanilla cream over the crust, making sure it is even and get rid of the air bubbles. Take your cup with the chocolate sauce and pour in circle from high right in the middle of your cake and move outwards changing the high of your holding cup.
5. Take a tooth stick and marble two different coloured creams. Do not overdo it.
