Last Tuesday I tried the recipe for King Arthur Baking's original cake pan cake. I'd tried the vanilla version a while back but this was the inaugural cocoa-based single round layer, all so that I could put to use the trial run of a white chocolate whipped ganache. When I'd made the super epic rainbow cake the weekend before, I was unsure how the quantity of Swiss buttercream would work out, and I had to have a back-up ready to go since there were six for our dinner gathering. Anyway: I didn't need the ganache base I'd prepared and didn't want to let it go, so here's the cake I made to go under it.
Probably because of all that good cake, I felt compelled to make my Tuesday evening downtown stroll a bit longer and somewhat aggressive, clocking in at just over 4.5 miles. Once again, that left me kind of soaked. But as I cooled down out in the side yard, I was exceptionally happy to hear the first cicada love song of the summer season, for me a most joyful noise.
