[Your Just Desserts] Chocolate Tweed Angel Food Cake « Your Just Desserts: In the morning I unmolded the cake and sliced it into three layers.  I whipped my heavy cream and folded in the ground almonds and grated chocolate.  I filled the layers and then frosted the entire cake with the rest of the whipped cream.  Then I decorated the cake with the mini chocolate chips.  Rose’s instructions say that it is easier to get the chips to adhere if you pelt the cake with them.  She is right, they really adhered and I had a great time doing it but now I am finding those little suckers all over my kitchen.  I guess I had too much fun.  I really don’t find this a particularly attractive presentation but what it lacks in visual appeal it makes up for in whopping good taste.  To be perfectly honest.  I think this cake is so good, it is a shame to frost it.  The next time I am skipping the whipped cream and serving it naked.  You all need to try this cake.

[Lady of the Grape Wine Blog] Lady of the Grape Wine Blog » Blog Archive » California Dreaming ...: 2007 Field Blend Members Reserve - this blend is 48% Barbera, 23% Carignane, 16% Alicante Bouchet, and 13% Petite Syrah.  This was a very interesting wine as it was also sweet, unusual in California for a red vinifera wine.  I am betting it will be a great seller as it was very easy to drink and quite complex.  $19.99 regular price and $13.99 for wine club members.  I must confess that I find that a bit confusing as it is supposedly only being sold to wine club members.  Maybe you can talk them out of a bottle at the higher price.
