Especially if your saucepan has a black bottom, you won't be able to see the real color so turn off the heat when it looks just slightly golden, otherwise, it will be dark and bitter
When cakelayers have cooled, remove from pans and refrigerate until cold. Pour ganache over the top of the cake and, with a cake spatula, smooth the top of the cake and allow ganache to spill over the sides
If you’re brave enough to try your hand at Swiss meringue buttercream frosting instead of a traditional buttercream then your icing will look much smoother (or so I’m told)
Turn first layer of cake on platter. Place second layer on top. Cake flour is more finely milled and typically bleached with a lower content of gluten-producing proteins than all-purpose
And where most normal teenage girls probably have collections of jewelry or high-heel shoes that they couldn’t live without, I have shelves and random piles full of dishes and odd kitchen items that have somehow ended up in my room
These solo activities (yes, I made this cake by myself and then solely indulged on a slice with my coffee after the traditional birthday run) will be followed up by dinner at a restaurant I've been wanting to try for ages and drinks with friends at my favourite spot in Paris
