黑森林蛋糕

第一次做海棉蛋糕失败了，我是根据fannie的基本海面蛋糕的食谱做的。 当我倒入面粉时，所打发的面糊全都消泡了。 所以蛋糕烘出来没有发高。 可是却烘得很美。 其实我不怎么喜欢这种蛋糕的质地和口感， 因为它太干燥了。

120度烘出来的蛋糕，美美的！

可惜蛋糕没发!

今天再度尝试海棉蛋糕。 我一直很想做黑森林蛋糕， 找了这网页nasilemaklover
感觉这蛋糕也不难做。可是我最大的致命伤就是做蛋糕体。什么的失败都经历过。 这次也不例外。我用130度来烘。 十分钟后，蛋糕上层就开始有裂痕了。 我赶紧调低度数到120度，再铺上锡纸，以防蛋糕继续开花。谁知蛋糕表层被锡纸破坏了。 中间发起，可惜旁边却凹了一环。 真是美中不足！

蛋糕啊！蛋糕啊！你就不能美美出场吗！

不管那么多了。 我继续我的装饰工作。 那天买了一包一公升的奶油霜(non-diary topping cream from Red Man)。 一包是新币5.65元。 这是我第一次使用这种奶油霜。 挺容易打发的，大概五分钟就好了。 我是用高速来打的， 没有加糖，因我怕太甜。

没樱桃，只好放葡萄

上面还挤了“love"

旁边再加上巧克力粒和上面加上巧克力片，我的黑森林蛋糕终于出炉了。 满足感100分！
