Close up of the cake


The older I get, the more I appreciate the more subtle nature of cakes made by Chinese bakeries. This was a mango cake, and everything: the cake, the mousse, the fruit, and even the chocolat shavings and petals (around the edge of the cake) are 1-2 steps tamer (less sweet, less buttery, less dense) than the similar cake turned out by your typical neighborhood bakery. Yum!
