Review Detail

This cake was a hit. It was a little bit dry, but I'm pretty sure that was my fault for overbaking it, and not the fault of the recipe. It was deliciously rich and chocolately, and looked great, though I decorated it differently to the recommendations here. I've given it only 4 stars because mine turned out a little dry, but the recipe probably deserves 5 stars, I think I just left it in the oven too long after I checked it the first time.

Some points of interest:
* I used Dutch processed cocoa powder, with some apprehension, because I have kilos of the stuff, and it turned out fine.
* I didn't have bread flour, so I added vital wheat gluten to my plain flour (1 teaspoon per cup), and that worked.

If anyone's interested, I've written up what I did and how I decorated it in more detail on my blog, linked below.
