Triple Choco Caramel Cake(TCCC)


 My friend,Eila has asking me to bake a small choc cake for her Husband's birthday..... at first I was reluctant to accept it as I'm not taking orders anymore but then I remember that one cake that I very keen to bake... Triple Choco Caremel Cake.....the most talk about cake in Indonesia....I've been keeping the recipe in my treasure recipe book almost 2 years and I thinks this is the right time for me to test it.


Simple decorations.... I just put the Belgium chocolate buttons at the side of the cake then I tied it with pink stripe ribbon. Thanks Eila...


Since the recipe is in large quantity & Eila just want small cake ....I've divided the cake batter into 2 portions which I've bake the cake  into two 6 " cake tin.... one portion for her & one portion is for ME..he..he.. and above cake is for ME.....Thanks to Teh Uceu for sharing the recipe....

To assemble Cake:-
