hi….i make and sell tamales and some of my friends have asked for me to make chocolate cake to sell also. so last week i found this cake and made it. using a few vaiations of my own. i added orange essance to it. and candied yams as the filling. instead of ganache i used the prailine buttercream on the outside as frosting. well….my friends were all very happy with the results. and asked for more. that week i sold more cake than tamales.

You are killing me here Mike! That sounds incredible, especially with the praline buttercream

Just the word ‘praline’ gave me goose bumps, this looks fabulous!

You are so right! There is no such thing as to much chocolate cake. Great way to tweak the DB challenge from a while back! I remember doing that cake also and I bet the chocolate cake went wonderful with that buttercream! Is that last piece for me?

Cake looks wonderful. Love the praline too.
My only criticism – and I think I’ve told you off for this before – is why is the slice soooooo small???
I think I’ll cut my own slice if that’s ok?!!!

The layering looks fine to me.. Even looks intentional

Too much chocolate cake? I’m not sure I understand what those words mean. I’m sure there couldn’t be too much of this amazing cake. It’s breathtaking!
