You know what would be so cool, would be if I could make a Cake of the Week blog. Unfortunately, I can neither afford to do that nor do I have any way of actually disposing of the cake afterwards. But I did make a Tia Maria Truffle Cake with Meringue Mushrooms for Mama and Daddy's anniversary on the eighth, and it came out v. nicely.
So, pictures!
(This blog would be so cool, though. I would post a picture of how the cake was supposed to look, a picture of how mine turned out, and do a comparison about whether the recipe was accurate and how difficult the cake was on a rising scale and &c &c it would be so much fun.)
...Yes!
