My Mother's Special Day

I remember the days when I used to buy  Red Ribbon  Chocolate Mousse cake  for my "Mami'" on her birthday.  But always half a cake  'lang kc yun lang kaya ng allowance ko eh!'

It's  her  64th birthday today.  Whilst we are miles and hours apart,  I would love to continue giving her the same cake.  This time,  I will make one!

 According to Red Ribbon's Product description, Chocolate Mousse  is "A bed of rich chocolate pound cake, topped with delicious cream-based mousse and chocolate chips".


I have been scouring the net for recipes however  I cannot find one recipe that is similar to Red Ribbon's.  Some recipes have flourless base, others use a different cake base. I want the cake to be as close as possible to the real deal.  Anyway, I  mixed and matched 3 different recipes. Click the following  links

1st layer - chocolate pound cake

middle layer - mousse

topping - whipped cream

Here's the finished product.

Eh 'paano kaya makakarating to? ' While on facetime early morning, I told her 'na ipapadeliver ko.'

Eto o she received it in the afternoon, ang bilis daig pa fedex, dhl o superman..ay si Flash nga pala ang naghatid!

Actually, I asked my 'sistah' to buy one for her. Let's have a slice or two.

Looks the same, pwede na. Sa lasa na lang magkakatalo. Final verdict?  Taste it and be the judge. How?  Lick na lang the screen ( wag pikon)

 Let's toast to that!
