This looks like it was worth all the effort. You’re creative additions with the luster dust make this look like it came from the most elegant (and $$$) bakery in NYC. Great job!

Your cake looks perfect! Great tip about baking it in the sheet pan.

Ooh, shiny. Love it. I like your idea of baking the cake in a sheet pan, then cutting it into portions instead of slicing layers. So much easier!

socializing = gossiping for me, too!

Sorry to hear about your property woes

And I can relate – one of my favourite coworkers is leaving next week and it’s such a bummer since the only thing I like about work is socializing (OK, gossiping – that and the kick ass coffee in our canteen.)

But a successful cake is one good thing in your week, at least

I have been looking for a good chestnut cake, and this looks like it’s the one I should try. Many years ago, in a restaurant, I had the best cake I’ve ever had…it was a chestnut cake. Ever since, I’ve been hoping to re-create it. Love your new header!

Beautiful. I made this one also and was planning on posting it next week. The glittery chestnuts are gorgeous.
