That's the best thing I've heard all day. I tried to look at your blog by clicking on your name but I wasn't able to see it. Please be sure to tell me the URL so I can check out your photos. Thanks for taking the time to tell me!!Juliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17286364613015048949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3348881315663830662.post-42300597618475864162008-12-11T10:58:34.793-08:002008-12-11T10:58:34.793-08:00Hello -- a friend sent me your blog address, and I'm totally loving your blog. I'm usually the baker in our house, but for my 30th my husband told me he'd make me any kind of cake wanted. Based on your pictures and description,I picked this one. He did a fabulous job! You can see pictures on our blog (and I hope you don't mind that we linked back to you).katemhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05481884762816482831noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3348881315663830662.post-6947793099224946482008-10-21T11:09:06.720-07:002008-10-21T11:09:06.720-07:00I love that Julia craves challenges, and she was kind enough to make this cake for my birthday. I loved it! It was delicious and decadent - just what a chocolate lover wants.<BR/><BR/>If you love chocolate, this is the cake for you.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3348881315663830662.post-90775813343689979002008-09-15T06:46:21.609-07:002008-09-15T06:46:21.609-07:00That looks amazing.

I'm gonna go buy it! I love the changes you made to the recipe. I've never thought of the candy bar idea either. Very creative!sweetflutterbys3http://www.blogger.com/profile/13276478679906785113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3348881315663830662.post-1128705757433429222008-09-10T13:58:55.063-07:002008-09-10T13:58:55.063-07:00<B>Heather</B> - Thank you! I couldn't resist using some my new sprinkles.<BR/>-----------------------------------<BR/><B>the food librarian</B> - I'm a big fan of the Bundt. I would like to find another pan as I'm growing a little bored of the shape. But yes, I agree that they are easy and there's something just really homey about them. <BR/><BR/>Oh and thank you! I came up with the design and I hired <A HREF="http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=5042675" REL="nofollow">Kelly of Modish Design</A> to make it for me. She was just fabulous to work with. Plus she was insanely inexpensive!<BR/>-----------------------------------<BR/><B>ingrid</B> - you know, me either. I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one! I love the Cake Mix Doctor books. I always feel like I'm cheating a little bit when I use one of the recipes, but they are really great. I sometimes find that people actually like them better than those I make from scratch! Oh and to answer your question from forever ago, yes I buy used books from Amazon all the time. I've never had a problem and I save a ton of moolah.<BR/>-----------------------------------<BR/><B>noella</B> - hey you! I picked them up at Cookies in Ballard. I can pick you up a bag the next time I'm out there. Hey, isn't your birthday soon?! This will be the first time in several years where I didn't make you something. :-(Juliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17286364613015048949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3348881315663830662.post-70181408400416818512008-09-10T10:04:51.100-07:002008-09-10T10:04:51.100-07:00oh my god! i want those stars!!!!!noellahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01963768592626692760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3348881315663830662.post-91023229264631408312008-09-10T09:58:10.107-07:002008-09-10T09:58:10.107-07:00Hi, Julia!<BR/><BR/>While I'm not terribly fond of chocolate, your icing dripping down the sides of that cake looks DELISH! That is a pretty cool idea to melt the candy bars down to impart their flavor into the batter. Thanks for the tip! I don't have that cookbook and I certainly never would have thought of it on my own! Think it would work well with brownies and blondies?<BR/><BR/>~ingrid :-)Ingridhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13244727113979869203noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3348881315663830662.post-78871923351647880012008-09-10T09:21:42.180-07:002008-09-10T09:21:42.180-07:00What a great looking cake! I love the Bundt cake shape - so easy to make, frost, and of course, EAT! I love the little star and Milky way addition.
