I love how dark it is and the contrast of the whipped cream and darker cake/ganache. <br /><br />I love that chiffon cake stand cooling rack thingy. Very neat.<br /><br />My cake was definitely missing the caramel whipped cream. Reading everyone's review of it, it seems like the best part of the cake! I will definitely make the complete recipe next time (and there will be a next time :)<br /><br />http://bakedtoorder.blogspot.com/2015/01/roses-alpha-bakers-chocolate-cuddle-cake.htmlinthekitchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00237440633784467985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2691107354521190985.post-53414182166920267892015-01-06T10:29:54.169+08:002015-01-06T10:29:54.169+08:00Your cake turned out beautiful.

Because when it is out I invert onto the stand and then the cake will cling onto it? *shrugs*.. Because when the cake cools down and I invert the pan, the cake holds the stand and it doesn't fall off..until i pull it out.Faithyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11389566076963800125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2691107354521190985.post-72307357674959304762015-01-05T15:30:16.356+08:002015-01-05T15:30:16.356+08:00This comment has been removed by the author.Faithyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11389566076963800125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2691107354521190985.post-9500590167995732322015-01-05T14:01:57.851+08:002015-01-05T14:01:57.851+08:00wow, good to know the nail isn't really necess...wow, good to know the nail isn't really necessary! i love your double mixing technique!evil cake ladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09028488030328153196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2691107354521190985.post-85596558098584159132015-01-05T09:25:07.396+08:002015-01-05T09:25:07.396+08:00Hi faithy , I think it has nothing to do with the ...Hi faithy , I think it has nothing to do with the strips of parchment paper because Marie uses that and hers is pretty high.
