birthday
Recipe: Magnolia Bakery chocolate cake, chocolate mousse and chocolate glaze from "The Art of Chocolate"
Occasion: B came down for my birthday and we made this. A bunch of my friends met us for a sushi dinner and came over to our place afterwards to have cake.
Notes: we first made chocolate pastry cream filling from the same book, but it was way too runny to put in between the two cake layers, so we made the chocolate mousse instead. Yummy!

Oh, yeah, forgot to mention that we stuck the cake in the fridge for a couple of hours before glazing it, and when we glazed it, the glaze set very quickly because the cake was cold, so it didn't cover the sides of the cake very well. That's why the sides are surrounded by strawberries. Maybe we won't refrigerate the cake next time...
That is one fine cake! My birthday is in a few months too...
