Hi Kitchen Corner,

Thanks for your compliment. For the chocolate cream, simply just mix in chocolate paste and hazelnut spread or melted chocolate.

Lovely cake, it brought back memories of those good old days.

How to go about doing up the piping jelly ?

Happy Flour said...

Hi Art of Eating,

Thanks for your nice words. It the same as piping icing on cake.

Hello Happy Flour,
I just came across your blog, and I really enjoy it! This cake looks very yummy! However I live in the US and I don't know what chocolate paste is. Do you know of a substitute or if I could make it myself possibly?

Hi Lilly,

Thanks for your compliment. Chocolate paste is a kind of chocolate essence. If you don't have that, you can omit it.

Aimei said...

Hi! Can I know where you got your piping jelly? Do you make it or bought it?

Happy Flour said...

Hi Aimei,

You can buy the piping jelly from Sun Lik and Phoon Huat.

Hi Anonymous,

Use a cake base board to transfer the cake onto another cake.
