I'm getting closer.
Maybe next time I'll make enough frosting for four layers. Until then, have a groovy Tuesday and boogie boogie.

Chocolate Fudge Cake
Please enjoy a slice of Chocolate Fudge Cake. No eggs, no dairy. Super duper fudgy and light at the same time. And get this, I made enough frosting for two full layers. Not like my first cake, when the back end of it went bare.
I'm getting closer.

You're getting better! Now, pass a slice of cake, please.
ReplyDeleteSo yummy, I nearly made it again yesterday. I read your post, I hope to read more about your music and the things YOU'RE up too.
DeleteYour blog makes me hungrier than any other blog in the blog-o-sphere :)
ReplyDeleteThanks bunches. Hope you're week is rockin' and rollin' so far. Cheers and boogie boogie.
DeleteAbout 500ml (half a litre) of cream (before whipping) is enough to get icing for an average sized cake of two layers :) When you whip it you will get more than a litre of the icing or even more if you add something more in it too, like some caramel or pudding or whatever....
ReplyDeleteHi Dezzy. That does sound yummy. The one I wrote for this cake was an agave vegan vanilla frosting.
DeleteNo cream anywhere in sight. But that's a good idea for when I get into dairy-based frosting. Thanks.
the point of my comment is that about 1liter of any icing is the quantity you need to ice an average cake in the middle, on top and around.
DeleteThanks, Dezzy. I found that 100g of my veghead-friendly base frosting, gets me one round covered. Though I don't like a lot of frosting, so that still might be too little frosting for some. Especially those who like their cake covered on the sides.
Deletehere in Europe the sponge layer has to have the same height as the icing layer :) A finger of sponge, a finger of icing, a finger of sponge :) We prefer icing to sponge.... we're decadent like that
DeleteSounds like you found a system that works best for you. Which is part of the fun. Add a little or a lot. Whatever you like. It's all good.
DeleteHi Ivy, this is so beautiful and yummy. Can see that the cake is soft and moist and wow, like the frosting. Very perfectly done. You have a wonderful week and regards :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Ivy. So funny writing that name.
DeleteYour chocolate chip muffins looked super yummy too. So much fun to bake, yes?
Yum!
ReplyDeleteHello Doughnut. That still makes me laugh, from yesterday. Good stuff. Good stuff.

ReplyDeleteThanks.
DeleteMmmm, mmmm, mmmm.
ReplyDeleteNow I want some chocolate cake.
Please, enjoy. It's light and fudgy. Somehow, it's both. I dunno how. But I'll take it just the same.
DeleteThanks. Don't mind if I do...(reaches through screen with the BIG fork...). Nom nom nom nom...
ReplyDeleteDon't forget to take a slice for your honey bunny, too.
DeleteLooks good, it would be gone fast here. I'm not big on chocolate but fudgy sounds good.
ReplyDeleteThe fudgy bit was fun.
DeleteThat looks yummy.
ReplyDeleteThanks.
DeleteWhat's that? Behind you! Right there! Take a look!
ReplyDeleteOm nom nom nom....

DeleteLooks great!!
ReplyDeleteYours did too. Really fun stuff.
DeleteOh, that looks sooooo good '
ReplyDeleteIt was fun to eat.
DeleteI am not a chocolate person.... but that looks really good.
ReplyDeletecheers, parsnip
It wasn't sickly sweet, which I liked.
DeleteI need to not come to your site when I am hungry! Mmm!
ReplyDeleteI saved you a slice.
DeleteCho-co-late!! (drool, drool, drool).
ReplyDeleteRead your new post. Good luck with it all. Sounds like a big job, but one that will feel really good when it's done.
