If you're up for a challenge I've heard these 100 hour brownies can be amazing I tried them a few months ago and they were mediocre at best but i'm pretty sure I just fucked up the recipe(27-01-2026, 03:28 PM)Wayno Wrote: I did see some but I headed straight to the venue so I couldn't take it in.

Very quaint place-buildings leaning over and nearly touching each other above cobbled streets and the fact that it regularly floods high enough that certain roads and businesses have to close is very funny to me.

Damn the big 3-0 for chocfest next year then. Must have been some great chocolate cakes over the years!
Nice segue-way into the fact that I have to make some chocolate soon for my girlfriend for Valentines as I do it every year and it's the only way we celebrate. I wouldn't say baking is a "hobby" of mine but I do enjoy it and should maybe do it more (I'm not sure I can call what I make her for valentines baking anyway tbh, it's more just melting chocolate and assembling ingredients). Anybody into baking got any recipes to peddle?
