Ganache is the new crack, people need to get it together and make this for themselves. I will start working on it, today is a beautiful day out here in Western Washington, USA, and its time for some baking magic to happen!

I was beginning to think I was the only one who experienced these trials. <br />This cake is deceptively easy to make, and it gets amazingly better with each passing day, although it doesn't last as long aboard NB Valerie as it used to at Cloudhouse!Les Biggshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06200731053479474814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11311723.post-79741809358376296722012-02-25T18:37:06.822+00:002012-02-25T18:37:06.822+00:00Now that is a Cake recipe....!

I regularly cook a roast on Pippin, and am oh so familiar with the half-hourly turn of the joint to enable even cooking.<br /><br />As for ingredients, I will always remember the adage of a Soho Chef who used to drink in The French House: "Rubbish in, rubbish out!".<br /><br />Top ingredients are the only way forward!John Wittshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14291220958329864659noreply@blogger.com
