This looks amazing, any chance you could share the gluten free version please?
Oh my goodness, so yummy! Thank you for sharing.
This cake turned out lovely thank you
Dear Lord, So far today, I haven't gossiped, lost my temper, been grumpy, nasty or selfish. I haven't whinged or eaten any chocolate! However,I'm going to get out of bed in a few minutes & I'll need a lot more help after that! Amen
Chocolate and pear what a combination... awesome can't wait to try
I have made this cake many times and it is always delicious. The pears need to be very firm so as they don't chop up too much.
When I serve as a dessert I serve with A Berry dream made with Goosberries, the tartness of the berries compliments the sweetness of the cake, plus a dob of Yog.
My friend and fellow consultant Georgia Carr has converted to a gluten free version. YUM.
