Chocolate Cake with Marshmallow Frosting

March 1, 2012 By A Spoonful of Sugar - 10 Comments

If you are after a cake for a special occasion, you can’t go past this Chocolate Layer Cake, filled with rich chocolate ganache, and topped with Marshmallow Frosting. Sarah baked up this treat for the family last weekend and it was amazing!

She used Martha Stewart’s Chocolate Cake Recipe and topped it with the 7 Minute Frosting.

Needless to say, it didn’t last long!

    Picture perfect. I admit I’m not a cake lover but I love 7-minute frosting — it’s that marshmallow goodness.

    Hello Lisa and Sarah
    My oh my, that cake looks wonderful. A far cry from my devil’s food cake mix with softened ice cream endeavours (although it is very yummy too).
    I have a question for Sarah. What do you use instead of corn syrup? I don’t think it’s readily available in Australia, is it?
    Thanks, Clare

    did you run it under the broiler to get the toasty effect? I’ve made that frosting before and we love it, but I never thought of toasting it.

Thank you so much for the wonderful reception to t Thank you so much for the wonderful reception to the Quadra Pouch launch last week — I’m thrilled you’re loving this pattern as much as I do.Today I’m sharing a brand new Tilda version, stitched in the large size and made entirely from blenders. I used four Bellflower prints from the Wallflower range for the exterior, and four Stella prints from the Songbird collection for the lining — eight fabrics in total, making it delightfully scrappy.I love how easily Tilda collections mix and match, and how each corner of the pouch showcases a different print. The clever panel construction gives the pouch a neat flat base without boxed corners, and the result is both practical and beautifully structured.If you’d like to sew your own, the Quadra Pouch pattern is available in both my Pattern Store and Etsy Shop.Comment QUADRA and I’ll send the link straight to you.Pattern Details: Quadra Pouch (3 Sizes) - available in our Pattern Store and Etsy ShopFabric: Bellflower blenders and Stella blenders from Tilda, with thanks to @tilda_australia#tildafabrics #quadrapouch #sewingproject #scrapfriendlysewing #pouchpattern
