@Jessie: To wrap the cakes with...Thanks, everyone!<br /><br />@Jessie: To wrap the cakes with chocolate, I cut strips of parchment paper that were wide enough and long enough to wrap around each cake once. Then, I tempered dark chocolate (or, you can cheat and use chocolate couverture) and spread a thin layer onto each of the pieces of pre-cut parchment paper. Then, just as the chocolate is cooling, you wrap it around the cake and let it cool completely. Finally, once the chocolate has dried, you can peel off the parchment. It takes some practice with timing, but it's pretty simple once you get the hang of it!Steph (desserts for breakfast)https://www.blogger.com/profile/07806977864958481985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3569004503761494300.post-43044911501440208972010-06-01T07:14:29.913-07:002010-06-01T07:14:29.913-07:00You are incredibly talented!
