A Tall 4 Layer Cake! I don't remember ever making a cake this tall that didn't fall. Yeah, it was barely staying up. [Because I didn't bother to make sure all the layers were even and flat] But it stood as long as it needed to. It isn't a great peregrine of chocolate virtue, but it did have 2 layers of moist chocolate cake and 2 layers of chocolate frosting. The cake was made from 2 mixes and the chocolate frosting was store bought. [I did make the white decorator frosting.] I was very surprised actually, that it was very delicious! It was also very moist. I think that powdered sugar and crisco frosting concoction is a very good moistness insulator! Add the added bonus of the impressive tallness of it all and voila- Success! I wish I would have taken a photo with a fork or something so the scale would be more obvious. You'll just have to trust me on it.
It's so nice to finally have something new in the chocolate department, because I'm always so busy dieting, I'm avoiding eating most everything. And while I do have a nibble here and there on my stash-I've blogged about that already. What else can I say? Maybe, though as Easter gets closer-or better, my nieces come to visit-maybe then I'll have some chocolatey blogging opportunities.
