Hello hive learners. How are you all?
Today I'm going to make a fudge cake for the first time. I usually make sponge cakes or chocolate cakes with whipped frosting. It's my first time making ganaches. Let's see what will happen.
I forgot to tell you that it's my sister-in-law's birthday. And making this cake for her birthday. Hope for the best.
