    I made this the way redsonia9 did and it was delicious, baked in oven not varoma, and everyone wants the recipe now.  Thanks everyone for the contributions.

  • I make this cake at least

    Submitted by redsonia9@hotmail.com on 23. March 2014 - 16:35.

    I make this cake at least twice a week for a local cafe. I bake it in a 24cm springform cake tin - line as per instructions above. I bake it for 50 min at 120 c then leave it in the oven with the door closed to cool, preferably overnight if possible.

    Then place it in the freezer for 30- 45 minutes. This step is crucial to turning out the cake. Then remove springform side and paper from sides of cake.

    Flip upside down and peel off baking paper from underside, then turn the right way up again.

    Sift icing sugar generously over the top and serve with TM Berry coulis and whipped cream or icecream.

    This cake will last for at least a week if kept refrigerated.

  • I was so excited to see this

    I was so excited to see this recipe pop up on facebook, and with my motherinlaw coming for dinner, who eats gluten free, I set straight to the kitchen to start baking. . . . .a very long and "complicated" way to make chocolate sauce (not even fudge).  Good luck for everyone else making this, but for me, it was one of my very few disasters.  Thanks for the try though.

  • I read in the Facebook Page

    Submitted by michellea_75 on 6. December 2011 - 22:40.

    I read in the Facebook Page that this can keep up to a week. Would this be best kept in the fridge? If so, will it be just as moist?

    Can this be done in a silicone cake mould, not a springform?
