I made this cake for a friend's birthday recently. The cake served 24 people easily and I received lots of compliments on it. The cake is a dark chocolate sponge layered with cream and jam, covered in shiny dark chocolate ganache and decorated with raspberries and chocolate fingers. The recipe for the sponge is borrowed and adapted from another source and the decorations are a mix and match of ideas I've picked up from several different places. So credit is due to several people for this recipe.
This is the best chocolate icing / ganache ever, literally! I actually don't think I've ever tried one as nice as this! When I invented this recipe I bettered myself.
