Long time no post - Black Forest Cake

It's been a loooooong time since my last post. Sooo busy plus sooo lazy... Nowadays, by 9.00 pm I have to say goodnite; Dalilah's order *sigh*. I have to 'accompany' her and Hasif; talk to them, sing to them, read to them...whatever... until they fall sleep. Most of the time (in fact, almost all the time), I fell asleep together with them :o...

So, there goes my blogging time....

Let's see one of latest project - my first ever Black Forest Cake. Although I lack of motivation to blog consistently, I never lose the motivation to bake and design beautiful (okay, okay, I admit...not always beautiful :)) cakes and cookies for friends and family.

I have been longing to try create this cake, printed the recipe ages ago and getting all the ingredients at hand so that when the mood strikes, I'd be ready to do it. However, I lacked real cherries and an occasion to celebrate!

Sooo, I had to make do with these processed cherries, and brought the cake along to my MIL's on my weekly visit. Coincidentally, she had some relatives came to visit, and voila... the cake was gone in no time...


Thankfully, the cake tasted great, although the design can still be improved!
