It’s time to celebrate Mom’s birthday so I whipped up this confection.
This cake also happens to be on the back of the book. Hers looks a lot better.
I find that I’m not a huge fan of cakes with whipped cream. I think maybe I don’t whip it long enough, but there’s always this dire warning about whipping it too long, because it will curdle, so I get nervous. Plus, everything slides with whipped cream. I should have skewered the cake to keep things in place.
It tasted good, though.
That looks delicious. I love cakes with whipped cream, but I completely understand how they could pose a logistical problem.
I looks lovely and tasty (and gross – which is a compliment from this chocolate disliker!). I like that it has raw cake edges. I agree about whipped cream. Give me a buttercream any day!
