Chocolate Crunch Torte as a Wedding Cake

Asked on 26 Jan 2017 by messi

Hello Lindsay
You very kindly helped me out with Delia's recipe for the lower tier of my son's wedding cake - now the second tier he wants a chocolate crunch cake - would Delia's Choc Torte recipe suit - just wondering because it contains cream? I would appreciate your reply. thanks so much. Assumpta. K.

Hello Assumpta K

The chocolate crunch torte is shallow and I think increasing the depth will make it very awkward to cut.

If he really wants to serve it to the wedding guests I would use a dummy cake layer and have the torte made, decorated and pre-sliced in a cool place behind the scenes ready to bring out when you want to serve it.

Best wishes

Lindsey
