for my sister's birthday party. followed mamafami's recipe for black forest - since i don't know how to do the 'rosette' tu pakai letak je the cherries. and i still can't sprinkle choc rice on sides of cakes! cake is nice, easy to do apart from the need to whip egg whites and the cream (no fresh cream kat supermarket tu so used whipping cream). one thing i learnt about whipping the cream - be patient! took a while for it to turn from liquid to cream, but once it reaches that point, wow, terus jadi lovely whipped cream! nasib ada mixer! recipe below. And the 3rd picture is the road to my house - since Nina tunjuk gambar snow i tunjuklah green green green trees. Sunday morning walk (note - an actual effort to go walking!!!). then i noticed those lovely jantung pisang but the trees were too tall, kalau tak boleh ambik (it's on no man's land).

i was wondering why there were pokok pisang pictures there... ;o)
cake looks nice! good idea to use peaches instead. i've never liked black forest coz of the cherry filling. but now that you've given us the idea, boleh lah letak my favourite fruits instead... like pisang ke...
letak apa yang you nak rita...certainly pisang is do-able.
