Chocolate truffle cake is a quick and easy yet exotic dessert of sugar soaked chocolate sponge sandwiched and chocolate all over with a deep and delicious chocolate truffle icing... But for a twist I made this sponge with vanilla and pineapple flavour because i made this cake for my anniversary celebration and i dedicated this cake to my loveable hubby....
Because he like vanilla sponge with chocolate truffle icing so i prepared this Divine vanilla and chocolate cake to him. While the intense chocolate flavour is enough to please the diners, I can add to the magic by spending little time on the decoration and garnishing.
Decorate the cake with swirls of whipped cream with chocolate icing in layer of cake and melted chocolate truffle on the outside layer of the cake which gives delicious moist and quick cake to satisfy some desire for sweetness. In each bite of this cake.. (will someone please tell me how to pronounce that word ????) no words to tell.
So hope you try this yummy cake to your lovly once and get the wishes as well as love from them.....
