Rich Chocolate Moist Cake (Zack)


I didn't realise that I am that daring courageous! I bravely accepted another challenge from my sifoo Kak Liza . We were chatting on Yahoo Messenger when she asked me if I could bake for her a chocolate cake to be delivered to her son in Shah Alam, as a surprise birthday cake for her daughter Azlina. I have doubt at first, as I have never before successfully decorate a cake with chocolate ganache. But then, I said to myself, if I don't try it now, when will I try it then? And if I don't dare to try, how am I supposed to know that I am capable or not! What's more, I mustn't let all the tips that Ana had kindly taught me, go to waste! On top of that, the cake that Kak Liza requested came from a well known sifoo in baking, non other than RinnChan who took the recipe from a talented lady in baking, Zack aka Mrs Zairul in Japan. As you can see read, all the names mentioned above are all BIG names in this baking world. That means, the recipe should be nice, insyaAllah. I will bake another cake for us to taste... when? Don't ask....


Anyway, thanks to....
~ Kak Liza for trusting me with this order
~ Ana, for coaching me with the ganache
~ Zack, for discovering the recipe and sharing it with us
~ Rinn, for promoting the recipe and for making me suffer to see the glossy look of her chocolate cake!

And presenting to you....my almost successful chocolate moist cake with chocolate ganache... hahaha...

    Bravo! Bravo!.... Nanti Rinn ghosek-ghosek lagi resipi lain.
