Re: The Art of Baking
been meaning to try molten lava cake... found this recipe.. will let you know how it turns out insha'allah

6 (1-ounce) squares bittersweet chocolate
2 (1-ounce) squares semisweet chocolate
10 tablespoons (1 1/4 stick) butter
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
3 large eggs
3 egg yolks
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons orange liqueur
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
Grease 6 (6-ounce) custard cups. Melt the chocolates and butter in the microwave, or in a double boiler. Add the flour and sugar to chocolate mixture. Stir in the eggs and yolks until smooth. Stir in the vanilla and orange liqueur. Divide the batter evenly among the custard cups. Place in the oven and bake for 14 minutes. The edges should be firm but the center will be runny. Run a knife around the edges to loosen and invert onto dessert plates.

Re: The Art of Baking
I used to think Charm City Cakes were amazing.. but now their work just looks sloppy. And not to mention totally overpriced- starting at $500!!!

Re: The Art of Baking
Has anyone tried making rice krispies treats with marshmallow fluff spread? I believe there is no gelatin in it.

Re: The Art of Baking
I have Aida. It's definitely not as marshmallowie deliciousness as using actual marshmallows but it suffices.

i prefer marshmallow cream. if you can find a brand called "jet" or "jet puff" go with it; they make marshmallows too, and they taste like the same exact thing. in fact, i believe they are the same thing except for form. cream is easier to measure, melt, mix (in my eyes). and no gelatin

I watch that show all the time
Love their creativity and I'm guessing its because of it that the cakes might seem sloppy  But they do make elegant style cakes.....did you check out their website?
You're right about overpricing, but what's messed up is that you've to practically reserve a spot months before the actual event! And no waiting list!
