This week I made some Coconut Cubes and a Chocolate Sensation. I've made something similar to the Coconut Cubes before although not out of this book. They came out well and taste real good. I have to admit mine are more coconut slices than cubes - if I cut them that small 'im outdoors would just eat 2 of them anyway.
The Chocolate Sensation started off very similar to the bonfire cake, but without the red colouring and with a different filling and topping. 'im outdoors said it was the least chocolate chocolate cakes he's ever had, but apparently it's still ok (I haven't had a chance to try it yet).
Next week I'll be starting the section 'Festive Baking' although it is skipping ahead a bit.
Verdict:
Coconut Cubes: These get a big thumbs up and a 'Please make again' from 'im outdoors. Tasty and light and lasted the week very well.
Chocolate Sensation: I think this grew on him. Its not his favorite chocolate cake but he said it was quite nice. I think the outside icing was pretty strong flavor wise. Better when eaten at room temperature (rather than straight out of the fridge)
