Birthday Cake for my boss

I wanted to do a special birthday cake for my boss, who has been a very fantastic boss to me for the past two years. How better to show my appreciation than through the cake I created for him. I wanted to do something special, which I thought and hope he might appreciate. So I decided to make a Chocolate Chestnut Cream Cake for him. Last year, I baked a Passionfruit Cheesecake for him and shared the cost among my colleagues.

Since I bought the Chestnut Puree from Sun Lik, I've not tried it yet. Good opportunity to take it out and use it now. I used emulsifier cake base, and added some whipping cream to the chestnut puree for my frosting.


I still need to improve lots for my frosting. However, it seemed it wasn't quite well received by my colleagues as the taste was rather rare & unique. But it's okay, certain taste need time to acquire, and I think chestnut is one of them.
