Did Rose specify which she meant? <br /><br />They also have black teas flavored with black current or raspberry. They won't be cheap but there's a good bet that the flavor will be present rather than washed-out.Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17760024406661421724noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8882070718279731833.post-68946838180697684642011-05-22T13:19:36.601-07:002011-05-22T13:19:36.601-07:00De-lurking to applaud your achievement!

One of these days I will make it through all of the recipes in this book. I did bake the cupcakes last weekend, but I just haven't had the time or energy to sit down and blog about them. It's amazing how much energy pregnancy takes from me. :)Andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11219860093366793324noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8882070718279731833.post-83434051074710205892011-05-17T19:21:41.727-07:002011-05-17T19:21:41.727-07:00Rose,

I'm so glad you said that.<br /><br />Marie! Congratulations on your perfectly wonderful Bomba, what a way to complete this bake-through! I am happy for you, and yet so sad for myself, as I, like the others, will be missing your bi-weekly posts. What will you do now?<br /><br />I'm still trying to find the time to make my bomba--the cake is made (and the scraps are delicious frosted with nutella), just gotta do the other 90% of the cake.

A hand mixer works great and is super easy, the speed can be controlled and your arm is spared. The time goes by much faster that way, plus you get better aeration because folding the chocolate and cream into the sabayon obviously results in some deflation, so the the fluffier the sabayon the better - but great job!Zachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03113950865364831471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8882070718279731833.post-60013986044577427152011-05-17T14:53:11.088-07:002011-05-17T14:53:11.088-07:00Tamar,

I took a big chunk to a friend of mine with two kids. I wasn't sure if the kids would like it, but they did. If only I'd had a camera to get the picture of adorable two-year-old Nora with a big grin and a blob of chocolate on her nose.<br /><br />Zach,<br />That's a very tactful way of saying my mousse wasn't quite high enough. :-) I'll have to try it again with the Manjari chocolate--but it's hard to imagine that it could have tasted much better than it did.<br /><br />Hector,<br />If only you had more bad-weather baking days in Honolulu.Mariehttp://heavenlycakeplace.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8882070718279731833.post-14205550797140512452011-05-17T10:21:56.621-07:002011-05-17T10:21:56.621-07:00Marie and friends, happy graduation! mine is yet t...Marie and friends, happy graduation! mine is yet to achieve...hectorhttp://www.myyellowkitchen.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8882070718279731833.post-44065197868508314052011-05-17T09:41:18.356-07:002011-05-17T09:41:18.356-07:00Hello! So glad you enjoyed it and maade it through...Hello! So glad you enjoyed it and maade it through....you did a great job and how nice to see someone conquer it. The cake was originally called Manjari because I use Valrhona Manjari 64% cacao which is perfect for a blackfruit pairing of the chocolate and tea due to its blackfruit undertones. If you can, try it with Manjari.<br /><br />Also, to answer your question, I make a half sheet of cake circles because I usually make more than one cake at a time for my purposes. However, if wrapped well they will freeze for a really long time or they are great with a dollop of ice cream on top if you feel you won't be using the remainder.<br /><br />It takes some practice to master getting both the sabayon and the mousse to stay well aerated, and even more so when folded together so that they filling fills the mold nearly to the top.<br /><br />Congrats!
