I absolutely love your site and the clarity of your instructions and pics. I just fell in love with baking and taking a chance on making some of the more exotic cakes. I am usually making banana breads, corn breads or some kind of muffins etc. I first tried your Ultimate Carrot Cake, a few errors with the placement of the layers but overall, came out lovely…especially liked the added coconut. I am Caribbean so coconut is a very nice touch for me.

Question… which tip would I use to pipe the strawberry cream?

Fabulous to see you in class, and what a treat to see your name in the comments!

Yeah, the MN humidity is not kind to anything crispy, including dacquoise. You really need to make it and use it on the same day. In our long drawn out winters it will last for a couple of days. An upside to winter I suppose.

Thanks!

Zoe

What a beautiful cake. I can’t wait to make it with my raspberry jam.

As an aside what fun it was to assist you at your Bread Class at Cooks of Crocus Hill based on your book Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day. Regardless of how many times I work with you I always learn something new.

One question, how does dacquoise hold up in this Minnesota humidity?

Thanks so much,
Bret
