Looks like mine are perfect then. Thanks for the tip.

Wow! Thanks for all the suggestions. Looks like I have some baking to do! I just cut a stock of bananas from our tree, so I think I'll start with the banana cake with sour cream ganache and then move on to the choc. oblivion torte. The mousseline bc is on the list too. I wonder how much weight I'll gain before Christmas?

I just bought a copy of The Cake Bible! Would anyone care to list some of their favorite recipes from this book? There are so many wonderful recipes, I don't know which one to try first. Thanks

Inspired by Chefette's demo on pastillage, I made up a batch and experimented with it by trying to make the top of a carousel. It's drying now.

Thanks Lesfen!

lesfen, when you sub the mayo for the oil, do you still use the same amount of eggs?

Chefpeon, it is just beautiful! I love the moroccan theme. I would love to see some more of your beautiful creations!

Wow, those flowers are amazing! They look so real. Thanks for the demo, I always wondered how they wired the leaves. You make it look so easy. Can't wait to see the rest of the pictures. Get some rest!

Thanks for the link! It was very informative. There are so many recipes out there that I want to try but have been fearful because of the raw eggs. Thanks for taking the edge off!

So how was the Chocolate Raspberry Hazelnut Pie? Those are some of my favorite flavors!

Another thing I like to do with mangoes is slice and freeze them. Then I put them in my Champion Juicer. It comes out creamy and smooth, just like ice cream. The best part is there are no additives or sugars. This works great with pineapple too!

Thanks so much for this demo! I'm sure that the plastic dowels attached to the cake plate really add to the stability of the cake. Do you think using wooden dowels with a cardboard round would be too unstable?

I like to make mango salsa! Put it on top of some grilled Ahi and it is oh so good!

I don't want to steal this post from jgarner53, but I've been drooling ever since I read this post! The other post regarding the passion fruit mousse has also caught my interest. Care to share your recipe? I have an abundant supply of passion fruit so I need a few recipes to test out.
