Describe an occasion when you had a special cake
You should say:
- -What kind of cake it was
- -When you had it
- -Who you were with
- -Why it was special
- It is very important to tell you that I’m not good at baking, but last year I decided to make a cake for my father’s birthday because it was the least expected thing that I could do for him.
- My father doesn’t like cakes with a buttery taste. And he doesn’t like too airy cakes either. So, I chose to make a three-tier chocolate biscuit cake with the tender and moist texture.
- I found a video recipe on the Internet and asked my mom to help me as I was afraid to spoil everything.
- I baked several Cakes and made Chocolate Mousse first. Then I assembled it, stacking the layers on top of each other.
- Also, I experimented with cake decorations a bit and finally decided on chocolate lace collars, decorating the outside of the bottom and middle cakes with them.
- The cake looked gorgeous. The crumb was delicate and moist, the frosting was rich and creamy and utterly chocolatey.
- It was filled with buttercream, fresh fruit, and nuts and flavored with citrus zests. I sprinkled the top tier of the cake with chocolate curls and dusted it with confectioners’ sugar.
- I was so excited as I just couldn’t believe I managed to make it myself. It was the first time I had ever made a cake myself.
- My mother just observed the process and tried not to interfere at all. Imagine how happy my father was to get it as a birthday present.
- He was also very proud because we invited all our friends and relatives to a birthday party, and all of them tasted and liked my cake.
