Chocolate & Raspberry Chocolate Cake

Leave a comment

This chocolate cake is a chocolate lovers dream. A rich tender moist sponge sandwiched together with raspberry jam and covered in a lush shiny chocolate ganache icing. This cake is a particular joy for those who struggle with icing cakes, and I do include myself in that category, due to its easy icing. The icing is just a matter of warming together a little cream and golden syrup and stirring in chopped chocolate and allowing it to melt into the cream and pouring over the cake. Check out the recipe below.

Hey there,

Happy Easter!

I hope you have a wonderful Easter weekend. The celebrations again may be dampened once again due to restrictions. It is at times like these that I feel that food and traditions are more important than ever to mark and celebrate these occasions and save us from the everyday mundane. For those that follow me on Instagram you may have noticed I started on the hot cross buns several weeks ago. Easter Sunday there will be herb stuffed leg of lamb and all the trimmings. For pudding there will be a couple of options my Eton mess roulade and chocolate fudge cake. Below are a few recipes that may be of use over the long weekend.

However you celebrate I hope you have a wonderful Easter weekend. Stay safe & well friends

Old Fashioned Chocolate Cake

A good old-fashioned chocolate cake is hard to beat, right? Its rustic appearance reassures me that it is going to deliver an uplifting fudgy hit of chocolaty goodness. Exactly what is needed midweek to get through.

This is a family favourite, that I am advised is best eaten slightly warmed so that the frosting has begun to melt and with vanilla ice cream. I prefer to eat at room temperature as is, but however you decide to eat it, I can guarantee you won’t be disappointed.
