Test Birthday Cake



















Hello, hello....

I have been commissioned with preparing a friend's birthday cake and I wanted to do something special.

I decided on a prince regent cake. It is Bavarian and celebrates the prince and the eight layers of government.

....thats right! EIGHT layers! Each is indivdually cooked and cooled before assembly.

I swapped the traditional butter filling for a dark chcolate and liquor mouse. The icing is lindt milk chocolate. All up, 400 grams of chocolate, 12 eggs, cream, sugar and flour - no butter! so it must be healthy!?!?!

This is the test version and with a few tweeks I think it will be perfect!

Yum, Yum!

    I expect one in the post very shortly for my Birthday! You can send each layer individually to save on postage.
