    Buono Moussa & Marion. Moussa your Italian was perfect in this video. Cake looked amazing in the end. Well worth the effort. Just like making beer but with a few extra ingredients 😂 Thanks for taking the time to show us the process. Appreciated.

Been crazy at work with the Christmas rush and didn’t want to commit to a date and let you down if the family couldn’t make it. I am off work for 3 weeks now so we should be able to tee something up.

    Whenever you see a gifted person you only see the public glories, never the private sacrifices to reach them. Your enthusiasm will inspire others to move forward with actions that bring rewarding achievements. Thank you.

    😆 🤣 😂 that's funny! It's a beautiful cake, that's for sure! Thickened cream is a popular cream in Australia and sold in most grocery stores, which I believe Americans call it heavy cream. Pure cream is slightly different, which contains around 35% fat. I hope this helps.
