Hi Aunty Yochana,

I would like to try out your Tiramisu Batik Cake. I noted that this cake is assembled by laying layers of tiramisu cream and sponge fingers, do I have to use special mould. How do I take the cake out from the mould after I fridge it for 3 hours. Can I make sponge cake instead of sponge fingers?
Though I am very newly attracted to your blog, I have been spending hours admiring the cake and bread you posted. Hope to hear from you soon.
Thank you.

Hi aunty,
Just wanna to thank you for this recipe. I baked this pound cake today n it turned out very well. It's very soft n taste a little like cheese cake. My children loved it very much.
I actually baked in paper cups instead of loaf pan cause I'm lazy to line n grease pan loh.
Anyway, thanks.

Vivien
