Always chocolate. XD

Of course chocolate :D (actually, that's the easiest of all of them, and the fastest. It was also a big success last time I brought it to the office.)

Well if it's already been a big success I'd say we're done here XD ;) They all sound yummy though :)

The truffles raspberry one is very sneaky. It looks all sophisticated and fresh and then creme double and butter and white chocolate descend on and you've got your cake fill for the next month with one bite...

Hahahah that reminds me of a piece of cake I once had. I had had two bites and I just looked at the rest of the giant triangle and just thought: No. Just... no. It was delicious! But.. no more XD

Yep, it's exactly like that :D But it was surprising how many people kept going bach for another piece at the party I last brought it to...

It must have been REALLY REALLY REALLY good :D (those last two really's should have increased in size, but I suck at html :p)

Good grief. If you have leftovers, want to send them to Canada? :p Those sound lovely.

Would the winning recipe suffice as an alternative? :D

Should do. I'll have to bribe my roommate to actually apply said recipe, though. My baking has many applications, but most of them are military.

How does that work? *puzzled

For one, my muffins make excellent blunt instruments. ;)

Even when supervised by someone who knows what they're doing, my baking just comes out like rocks.

Oh. Oooh. :D &hearts It's a gift. I think. If you're ever in big trouble and only have baking ingredients and equipment with you, you'll be prepared!

Exactly.

On the bright side, I can cook like nobody's business.

See, I try not to cook. It's better for me and everyone else...

I don't know that I've ever met anyone who is a good cook AND a good baker. You wouldn't think they'd be such opposite skillsets.

My mom's a really good cook and I'm a fairly good baker, and my sisters' explanation was that she likes to be spontaneous and doesn't like cooking strictly according to recipe while I like to be as close to a recipe as I can. That works very well for cooking but not for baking since baking requires you to be very exact and very much not spontaneous. Replacing ingredients works only for so long (white flour should never, never be replaced with whole weat flour for example...) and sometimes three minutes too long in the oven ruins the entire cake...

On the other hand, both my sisters are very good at both cooking and baking. Nyah. :S

Ok so I voted for peanut because peanut, right, but what you should really do is add some chocolate, I don't care where, crust, filling, topping, as a side dish, but peanut and chocolate rules all. Then send it to me.

Chocolate is part of the tarte (a rhyme! &hearts). How does one send cake? Because if I find out, how about one for your birthday?

I have no idea how but I appreciate the sentiment!

Ice it, wrap it in baking parchment, then in plastic foil, then pack it well in a sturdy box. For smaller things, get a cheap tupperware type box at Lidl or something.

(I once had a correspondence by cake. With somebody in Sweden.)

Thank you :D I think I'll go ask a Deutsche Post agent, just to be sure but this really helped :)

They all sound delicious.

Just tell me when you're making them so I can find a way out there, LOL.

(I voted for the peanut butter one because, dude, that sounds super yummy! :D :D )
