Chocolate Cake Royal
A most lovely late lunch @ "Cafe Imperial", an institution in the City!
Really looked impressive when we saw it in the cake window.
This was a very dense cake - with layers of gooey caramel interspaced with chocolate cake, covered by an outer layer of chocolate ganache. I had one mouthful and gave up. It was just way too dense; like eating a mouthful of chocolate and caramel "brick". Each bite stuck to places in my teeth and gum I didn't realise was possible.
For once, even my trio of dessert scoffers lost the battle too.
