Daring Bakers Challenge: Opéra Cake

This months challenge was a total disaster. Total. During the making of the cake my flavor combo's were off resulting in a bland boring taste, I for some stupid reason cut the cake into individual pieces before icing!


Where was my brain? Not in the kitchen that is for sure. First complete failure of a challenge and it was too time consuming and ingredient requiring to repeat. Can't wait to see how the other DB'ers did!

I'm sure it wasn't that bad. I hope your cake was tasty anyway!

Everyone has an off day. I burnt my cake. Thank you for showing us that everyone makes mistakes and there are people out there not afraid to show them off and acknowledge it!

Ooooh... I'm sorry you weren't able to make this one work better for you. But as Christine said, the fact that you're willing to share a less-than-desirable outcome makes you a supreme daring baker.

Thank God, I wasn't the only one who spaced out and had one disaster after another. Bless you.

Well, I agree with lesley - it's all about learning. At least you tried!
