The first cake I made from this book was the Curly Chocolate Cake. I made this for my good friend Kim for her birthday. I wouldn't make this for just anyone...but Kim is a special friend. A lot of care went into this cake and it was fun to make. It was covered in chocolate curls which took some time to make. Here are some before and after shots.
Kim was happy with it which made me happy! She has always been extremely supportive of my baking hobby and I really enjoyed baking for her. Baking with her was fun too! We spent a couple of weekends baking and decorating millions (literally, it seemed like) of cookies! I will post more on that later. Miss you Kim :o)
