I'm piecing together three recipes to make a cake full of chocolately goodness. The final cake will need to be made a day or two in advance of eating, so I'm trying some test cakes to make sure they hold up.
The base is a chocolate génoise that is sliced into three layers, sandwiched with chocolate-raspberry mousse, and covered with a chocolate ganache.
Now it's just a matter of letting it sit so I can see what it tastes like after a day or two. I suppose I should have a piece now so I have a frame of reference for what it tastes like after a day. All in the name of science and research, of course.

I'm glad you are using ganache, only because I really REALLY like saying it aloud. Ganache... ganache... ganache... Mmm... It rolls right out of my mouth.
I think I can smell it. Seriously.
Looks like quite a test sample was eaten out of that first cake. Maybe we should test to see how well it ships to California?
