Red wine chocolate cake
March 28, 2016
I love the texture of this cake . It has a rich chocolate flavour and a light crumb .
The red wine and chocolate pairs well .The wine gives chocolate ,a deep flavour .
Chocolate flavour dominates the cake .
The wine taste is in there .
It is subtle and very mild .
