    Happy birthday! I am toying around with the idea of baking my own birthday cake as well, since my mummy, my baker of choice, is not around to bake one for me. Yours looks truly truly decadent.

    What a great looking cake Magda...HAPPY BIRTHDAY my friend. That's a beautiful one. My birthday is just around the corner too, and I need to bake one. For the kids more than for myself. I love the light airy feel the top layer has... beautiful!

    I like the deconstruction sequence of photos near the beginning, and the re-construction checkerboard near the end. Elegant! And, of course, it looks delicious! - Mark

    Stunning, Magda! Even Mark (who does not LOVE chocolate - a personality defect, in my opinion...) wants me to make this. Brava! And happy birthday again!
