I made one last year but did not have an electric whisk.. took absolutely ages. I’m sure my dad enjoyed being in the background watching me and my aching arms - all knowing there was a Kitchen Aid hand whisk waiting for me under the tree!

Just wanted to let ya’ll know that I made this on Christmas Eve this year. The instructions are perfect. A little stressful (I was certain it was going to stick to the tea towel, but it didn’t). The cake was a MAJOR hit with my family. So good, so light. Definitely adding this recipe to the cookbook. Highly recommend.

Made it again this year. My mom was asking me all year long to make it again, but I resisted because I wanted it to be a Christmas treat; like something to look forward to. Made it on Christmas Eve again this year and it was a hit (again). Such a great recipe - Incredible cake! See you again next year! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year everyone!

My boyfriend doesn't like the taste of alcohol (and most of his family doesn't like hard alcohol like a good cognac), so last Christmas I filled mine with a whipped salted caramel buttercream and it was AMAZING. I can never go back, but the cognac Chantilly is very good.

@juliestevens4627 Жыл бұрын

Ridiculously delicious!! I did a dry run a few days before Christmas since I have not baked a lot in years!I learned a lot. On the second cake I used kitchen aid with the whisk attachment for all three mixings. Everything set up perfectly. I whipped up that ganache so it would be stiff enough to not have the fondant decoration not sink through it. Worked! It held the stiff little lines well to make it look like a tree. Filling is decadent and deliciously light. I used some vanilla paste to have some tiny vanilla bean flecks in the cream. The one challenge is the cake. The first try was an unmitigated disaster! I stuck like glue to the towel and I had to scrape bit off and assemble from that. Second try was much better and I used parchment paper instead with a lot of frosting sugar. What I did notice both times is that the weight of rolling it causes the cake to sort of flatten out a bit. Still delicious but neither held a round log form. Compressed itself to oval. Still gorgeous and delicious.

I made this today! And I made it more stressful then it actually was 😅 but it was tasty! Nice and light, with the chocolatey silky ganache (I used milk chocolate but I think a mix of dark and milk would work better - plus I made less and still had leftover ganache!) and creamy filling 😋, perfect after a heavy dinner for xmas! More details~ I only had a 30x24cm baking tray so I used 4 eggs for the cake and adjusted the ingredients accordingly. I made a mistake straight away though, I mixed what would have been 30g sugar with the yolks and 120g with the whites when it should've been the other way round! So adding cocoa made it really thick, and it didn't mix well with the whites, plus I added more cocoa cause it didn't look dark enough, but after baking it looked fine 😅 after assembling everything looked great, wish I could share photos :)

OK! Canadians and Americans: I combed through their channel and found a video where Jemma made her V. sponge where she actually weighed her eggs. UK free range eggs weigh approx 64-66g in the shell! For Canadians (and I think Americans) this is XL size eggs! Get those or add another large Canada/US egg to this recipe or it will fall apart.
