    These days I am into baking !!
    I tried my hand in baking a moist chocolate cake, marble cake and butter cake with fondant.
    If anyone else here is interested, maybe we can share the recipes.

    Hi Gracie,

    I too love to bake, haven't had lot of success but I find the process to be relaxing. I have been wanting to try some low cal cakes so now maybe we can share and try together.

    Thank you ladies for the comments and likes. I said risk, because i have never attempted baking. I was very scared of the oven, kind of phobia, because i once burnt my hand big time. Ever since i never tried doing anything great with respect to cooking other than everyday dishes.
    But i realized buying a cake is expensive when compared to baking one at home. and i have a couple of friends who can bake as easily as eating a cake ! They wanted to bake one for DHs bday but they also suggested that I try baking one and surprise him
    He was indeed surprised that i baked one! Because he has always been the chef of the house and i never even go close to the oven.
    However, i realized it not rocket science to bake a cake and if done with interest, it turns out yum ! :)

    The choc cake recipe courtesy : cadbury.com.au - moist choc cake.
    I baked 2 cakes, and made a layered cake, with whipped cream and cherries in between and topped the caked (and around the cake) with chocolate shavings (done with vegetable peeler) . On the whole, it turned out like a black forest cake.
