Hi akum,
Is ganache not required in the middle of cake? By cutting the cake into half and then applying to give a more rich taste
Hi Surabhi, this is not a ganache frosting cake..its just a glaze with simple chocolate frosting 🙂 but yes you can frost this same cake with chocolate ganache 👍
Okay..thanks 😊 will try it today !
Also the frosting has to be done on the bottom side of cake or the upper crust ? Should the cake be completely cool before applying this? Last question 😄 so u use both coils of oven when u bake or just the bottom ? Thank you very much Akum
Just apply all over the cake – up and the sides.. yes let the cake cool down completely.. both rods on 🙂
Tried ur recipe perfectly sweetened soft but dint get this dark color I did add one so of interest coffee and totally 3 tsp is coco powder but still dint get this color but the cake was too soft and yummy 😋 thank I for the recipe
Thank you for sharing your feedback Suma 🙂
Dear Akum, I tried your recipe today to bake one for my husband’s birthday.. The cake turned out to be very spongy and good. But my cour weren’t as dark as yours. Also I could see the chocolate pieces slightly melted in the cake. What can be the reason for that? I cut fine pieces of dark chocolate and added.
Hi Haripriya, the chocolate pieces will not melt completely.. the difference in colour might be due to the different brands of chocolate used 🙂
Hello Akum, which brand of chocolate for frosting?
Here I have used Cadbury, you can use any brand chocolate
Hi Akum, Can we use unsalted butter instead of oil.
Yes you can
Hi mam,
