My husbands birthday was on the 30th May and mine is on the 11th June, so Brendan, who is training to be a Pastelero, (a patisserie chef), made us a surprise birthday cake!
One half of the cake in the photo below, the half decorated with chopped almonds, is chocolate sponge, turron (a liquid nougart mixed with whipped fresh cream), whilst the other half, is the same chocolate sponge but layered with more fresh cream. Then the whole lot is drizzled with caramel.
We all just had a slice.....it was very nice indeed!!!!
