Making the cake




Well I have one part of it done. Woohoo!!! I found the cake batter so strange. I'm not use to making cakes from scratch so I don't know if they all look like this one or if it's just because it's a German chocolate one. It almost looked like chocolate mousse It smells delicious and I had to take a small taste off the beater and it tasted wonderful. If you notice on one of the pictures I am folding. Yes, I did it, and no it wasn't that bad after all. Got all worked up for nothing. My cakes are currently cooling and then I will go ahead and make the frosting for it and frost them tonight and put it together so it will be ready to eat for tomorrow. Can't wait!

So far it has taken an hour and 41 min. with cooking time. So take 30min. out of that and that is how long it took me to get it together. Of course the second time around I will probably be faster but that's my time for now. If you have made one from scratch before (Not a box cake) you can tell me how long it took you to make yours I would love to know.

I think that's it for now.
