Chocolate cake *squint*

I wasn't able to recover the large format pictures after all (>_<);;

If you squint really hard, you'll see that I decorated the top of this cake with a chocolate drizzle. I may have gone in too many directions, coz it went from artistic to cat-on-string tangled-up. Oh well. I baked this cake for an elementary school bake auction. I haven't heard how much it managed to fetch yet. I'm hoping for a lot. A friend says I'm a sucker for charity.

The cake was the same chocolate cake recipe from the Definitely Chocolate entry a few posts down. I used the frosting recipe too this time. It was actually very easy to work with. It helps that it was freezing indoors and the frosting stiffened to spreadable consistency before I got impatient and stuck it in the fridge.

On the plus side, this has finally pushed me to decide to get a new camera...when my birthday comes around...in a few months. In my defence, this camera isn't available yet on the market. Vote for your favourite colour!*

*(not necessary the one I'll get)
