Seeing them in my dark cupboard with my great big cake
Apr 17, 2017 · 1 minute readThat’s:
- funfetti cake with Italian meringue icing, flocked in green cocoa butter
- dark chocolate cake with whipped ganache, covered in chocolate ‘dirt’
- brown butter ganache chocolates
- paving slabs filled with chocolate and cream, flocked with dark chocolate
- matcha shortbread
- brown butter ganache macaron
- ‘pillow’ filled with white chocolate & kirsch mousse, dark chocolate mousse, chocolate cake, and flocked with dark chocolate.
I am no longer allowed to make cake decisions.
It all tasted pretty good, mind you…and great to have Luke, Christa, Tammy, and Christie over to help eating it (and taking away a sizable portion of the leftovers!).
Anyway, it was MY BIRTHDAY! There were presents, birthday lunches with soup dumplings, and a bizarre programme of British television highlights including Doctor Who, The Royle Family, Whatever Happened To The Likely Lads?, and Hi-De-Hi. And my, is Hi-De-Hi bad. Very bad.
It’s been a good few days, but tonight I am going to bed without having to think about cake for several weeks. Hurrah!
