Gorgeous, impressive cake and so easy. I made it in my new silicone baking tin (!) and it was a dream to turn out, and as you said it was different over the next few days. I say different rather than better, but I mean it positively. This will definitely go into my repertoire.

I made this cake for the first time for Valentine’s day. Divine! Especially with a dollop of freshly whipped cream.

Alison, even though I just made this cake last week, I was secretly disappointed when my husband didn’t request it for his birthday cake this past weekend. (He wanted carrot cake, his favourite.) You were very good to share, I don’t know if I would have! It’s just so good.

This cake should be outlawed! It was divine. I had enough to share with my neighbours as well as my mother. The freezing tip is very handy but unnecessary at the moment. Will keep it in mind for next time. Yum!

Kristin, I'm so chuffed that I'm appearing in your post as the 'Francophile friend'! I have also made these two recipes and they are just glorious. In fact, you've inspired me to make that lovely chocolate cake for some friends coming over for Sunday dinner this weekend. And you're right: buy the quality ingredients for this cake and it's 90 per cent there. Off now to buy some Lurpak and Green & Blacks...
