Belgian Chocolate Cake

Birthday cake yang kita buat July lalu..waktu bulan puasa untuk ,Marsya's 8th birthday...actually nak masukkan asik tertangguh aje..sebabkan  kita maluuuu sangat nak tayang kat blog ni...Memandangkan  dia minta cake 'Frozen', alahai..kita cakap kat dia..Marsya mama tak pandai buat figurinelah dear..so ini ajelah yang mama boleh buat... Kalau dicompare dengan kek2 'frozen' out there..kek ni memang lari jauh dari temanya..yalah orang buat cake frozen, warna, keputih2han, kebiru2an..dan more figurine or edible image kat atas kek.. mama main curah chocolate pulak kan..huhu...sebab itu aje yang mama tahuuuuu..hahaha...nasib baik ada 'snow flakes' sikit ..hehe....lagipun same reasonlah abang2 tak makan kek yang colour putih !..
Itupun cream yang putih2 tu dia orang kuiskan ketepi..

Cream putih tu sebenarnya  Swiss Meringue Buttercream..pertama kali buat ..sebab nak rasa macam mana differencenya dengan Italian Buttercream...pada kitalah ya..I would prefer the Italian one..mungkin ada technical problem during the process atau sukatan gula tu kita terlupa nak adjust...which is  agak manis pada kita ..
so I think I dont put the recipe yetlah until kita jumpa recipe yang betul2 sesuai to 
me...Maklumlah cari recipe buttercream tu pun main tangkap muat aje time bulan puasa tak 
kuasa..malas nak survey2 yang lain..dan compare..heheh itulah padahnya...
