ahh, the joy of not creating a flop! although It still needs some improvement . . . I am very pleased with my caramasu :) (noo . . . I don't like making up words or anything ;) ;)
so I did end up making the tiramisu inspired caramel cake type thing and although Its texture was more like a trifle but I am hoping to work on that next time.
the cake its self was really soft and I think that with the next one I make I would like to try cutting the sponge a bit thicker as you couldn't really tell what it was - well you could but not really??
another thing I would like to try is to make my own caramel hot chocolate concoction as I would really like to make it again but I don't want to use all of my caramel hot chocolate mixes (that I am enjoying right now!)
the mascarpone filling tasted amazing! I ended up using the one on the back of the mascapone packaging and tweaking it a bit by adding some pre-whipped Chantilly cream - yum! It was really sweet and complimented the caramel flavour very nicely.
so basically there were three parts to my caramel concoction . . .
 |
| the caramel hot chocolate mixture (which almost didn't make it to the cake!) |
|
|
|
 |
| the sweetly deliciously tasting mascapone cheese filling - there wasn't enough of this either! :D |
|
 |
| the fluffy and delicate sponge cake . . . |
 |
| almost as good (if not just as good) as the one I made at student works if I do say so myself :) |
 |
| oh and there was also the occasional slither of chocolate in between the layers |
 |
| along with some yummy, crunchy, flakey sponge cake flakes sprinkled on top! |
 |
| and after layer apon layer . . . |
 |
| THIS started to take form . . . |
 |
| A yummy, caramely, creamy, sweetly thing! |
 |
| Yum! |
I will post a photo of it cut along with a little slogan thingy that I wrote for my (hopefully) book!
my mouth I watering now . . . yum!
