I've been dreading this "Project" the whole month and have made every recipe except this one. At first when you were talking about all the components I knew it was a sign for me to skip it. Then I saw your deliciousness rating and started rethinking it.

Your beautiful cake has set a shining beacon for me to follow, or is that the chestnut candle??! I don't have a candle in that scent, so I'm a little apprehensive about my chances for success with this one. I'm very psyched that you gave it a 9.5 for deliciousness (I already assumed it would have a difficulty factor that's out the roof)Nancy/n.o.ehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12870024363382414106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7062237620274475848.post-31334437677757083942009-11-12T16:00:55.564-08:002009-11-12T16:00:55.564-08:00I did the hazelnut thing too and it absolutely roc...I did the hazelnut thing too and it absolutely rocked my world.

I'm still debating on baking this cake, it sounds pretty hard and the ingredients are even harder to find! Yipes. You encourage me though, so I'll try and find those ingredients somewhere! =)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7062237620274475848.post-33023765099544720212009-11-12T05:52:45.606-08:002009-11-12T05:52:45.606-08:00It looks beautiful!

I'm impressed that you made the caramel on the stove. Mine was a dismal failure. Thankfully, it worked perfectly in the microwave. <br /><br />After this dessert, everything else will be easy.
