Halloween is not traditionally celebrated in Australia, although in recent years it is becoming more popular.
Around these parts I have been having a little fun sculpturing cakes. Halloween seemed like a great opportunity to try my hand a making a Jack `o Lantern cake. This was my first attempt at a pumpkin cake, so very pleased with the result.
The cake is a chocolate mud cake with layers of raspberry jam and dark chocolate ganache. As in a previous post the chocolate mud cake is the perfect cake for sculpturing.
The J 'o L found a really good home at the office of Mr T&T and was in good company.
Even if I say so myself, the cake was moist and delicious. I think the reason people like the mud cake is that it is not sweet, maybe because of the dark chocolate ganache.
Wishing all, who celebrate Halloween a safe and Happy Halloween.
