Your cakes look gorgeous and came out of the ramekins well. Mine sort of collapsed due to gooeyness. Thought they were divine
Gorgeous! :)
Your's look perfect. I love the powdered sugar and strawberries!
Your cake looks really good! I need to start baking from TB's book again!
Yours look so much like beautiful little mini-souffles. Love the plating with the strawberries.
Great job Emily! I find it that getting them out of the pan is the hardest thing to do ... LOL! when the center is liquid sometimes you can't flip them over your hand... so... it's really hard... :)
they risen so well! It sounds a very lovely dessert to me!
