A Two Layer Cake Just Isn't Enough Anymore

Meeting 13 - A Two Layer Cake Just Isn't Enough Anymore

Date: 12th May 2010

Place: Cake Brigade Member Faulkner's Unit Base

Members: Faulkner, Bradley, Polson, Cunnane-Neilan


In the last post, I said there comes a time when a girl just needs chocolate cake. As if to prove my point, just a few days after my need, myself and the rest of the Cake Brigade simultaneously felt this need, as so we self medicated.

Our first dose was to get the brownie started so we could eat that while the cake was cooking. It was a packet mix, which always tastes so much better eaten out the tin while still warm, so this is what we did, in true Cake Brigade style.

Cake Brigade Member Faulkner decided to eat it all to her self, which Member Cunnane-Neilan looks far too happy about. Member Polson and Member Bradley were probably three seconds away from ripping it out of her hands. In the end, Member Faulkner decided to share, and we all scoffed it down in record time. I think we felt sick afterwards.


As if the Brownies chocolaty goodness was not enough, we then decided to make a three layer chocolate cake, obviously without measuring the cocoa (which has now officially been renamed phonetically - so co-co-ah), and sandwiched with CHOCOLATE EFFING BUTTERCREAM. For some reason, it went a bit wrong and was very thick. The reasons may have been too much icing sugar and cocoa, or too hard butter, but never mind. To spice things up a little, we added giant chocolate buttons on top of the buttercream and on the top too!


I think our chocolate cakes needs were successfully sated.
