Simply Perfect Chocolate Cake

I made this cake for my dad’s birthday and Wow! wow! Wow!

This is only the 2nd cake that I’ve ever made as my mum is the baker of the family, plus I’ve never really liked the thought of putting in all that effort and time only to find when you cut it, it’s a dissapointment.

I’ve always struggled with the science of it all but a 44 years old I decided to make my chocolate loving dad a cake. It went down a treat! Everyone loved it and I even impresssed my expert of baker mum.

I spent quite some time converting cups to grams and learning how to substitute the cake flour.

All in all it took me about 3 hours from start to finish but it was so worth it.

It was quite something…llght, moist and creamy. The swiss buttercream simply divine! So much so that my son asked me to bake something just so we could use up the leftover buttercream (as I didn’t use all of the mixture on the cake).

And believe it or not I felt confident enough after my achievements, that I made some chocolate cupcakes and topped them with the swiss buttercream. They did not dissapoint.

If I can do it, anyone can.
