Wow... Yum...
I'll like to ask, I tried your Chocolate Caramel Mousse Cake the other day, but the sponge cake rose very high and broke. The temp was not stated in your recipe so I used 175C because I saw that was the temp for most o your other sponge cakes. Did the sponge rise and break because the temp was too high? Or is it the shelf I placed it at? I put it at the middle shelf...(But the top of the cake seemed quite close to the top) I would appreciate if you could reply soon because I'm baking for my friend's parents' anniversary this thursday...Thanks! :)
