Last week the ALPHA BAKERS were baking a ChocolateTea Cake
Genosie.
I have never made a Genosie Chocolate Cake before and the first time I made it didn't look like it raised that much so I decided to make this ChoclateTea Cake again because I thought
that the cake layers didn’t cook enough or I didn’t do beat the eggs right and also I think I cooked the choclate too much for the batter, but I know next time lol...lol.. Sorry Marie but I hade to.. P.S. I 'm very happy with the cake and it almost looks like the one in the Baking Bible 😎 !!!!
Cake, it is a Rich,
Moist and Chocolatey and I forgot to say that the lemon liquor gives the
Chocolatetea Cake more flavor..
This would be good for people that love chocolate a lot, but not for me....
Would I make this ChocolateTea Cake again "ones in a while"...
I decided to make some changes to the cake, made the cake in two 8 " by 2"high round pans, used lemon oil in the batter, for the syrup used lemon liquor, added some lemon liquor to the ganache and had to made the (Crème fraîche from the Cake Bible pg. 260)...

ReplyDeleteThank you so much big sister for your kind words, I'm so happy that I remade the cake again, I'm very happy with the results.
DeleteI'm so impressed that you made it again right away. I'm glad you got it to turn out just right, but I thought the first one looked good too!
ReplyDeleteThe first one Marie was decorated really good but the layers of the batter didn't turn out so great now I know why , it's because of the chocolate that I think I overcooked and the eggs were a little over beaten too , so I cooked it less the chocolate for the batter and the eggs I whisked them lesser, the layers turned out just perfect and thank you for stopping by...
DeleteI can't believe you made this cake again! This one is beautiful too. The crumb on the cake looks perfect and the ganache looks shiny and luscious.
