Black forest cake is my most favourite cake.. Making black forest cake at home is like dream came true for me ..
Yesterday we celebrated our 8th wedding anniversary and I made this cake for the celebration. It came out very well.We loved it. It was soft , juicy and I used whipping cream for the first time ever…The cream was delicious and light..
I must thank Valarmathi of Bake pipers for guiding me in how to make whipped cream with some useful tips.I thought of whipping the cream using my electric blender which I use for whipping curd but it pulled my leg. The cream dint come out well with soft peaks as I expected . So I used my hand whisk after watching an you tube video and beaten it to the maximum to get soft n firm cream. I did for nearly 30 minutes with Sendhil’s help. He saw me struggling with the cream and he told “will buy a beater soon” , Yay . It was really tiring and painful but somehow I made the cream thick and frozen it till use. So electric beater is mandatory to make whipped cream at home.
The recipe I have given here is perfect to make a delicious cream.. Hope I can do the cream in correct consistency with electric beater and design the cake well in future.. I used “ Tropolite” heavy whipping cream to make the topping. I bought it from General food additives (GFA) at seshadripuram.
Coming to this cake, I got this recipe from Aval vikatan magazine. It was the recipe given by Mrs. sundari of “Shilpa cookery” in T.nagar , Chennai..The cake came out very soft and spongy.. .. I dint use cherry syrup for layers instead I used Thumps up drink and little sugar syrup to make the sponge soft and juicy..
Also I refrigerated the cake over night before cutting it. If you plan to make this cake for some celebration , its better to make it the previous day , refrigerate it over night and then use it for the best result.. U can use this cake recipe for making eggless chocolate cake too.
