Marble Cake

Seeming flawless is all about embodying the imperfections. I think the eyes can always be followed by the sense of taste. Great works of art sprung from accidents. Holding anything to a perfect standard, gives the premise to fail. After all what is a general accepted standard of what perfect is? Marble cake begins to answer that question.

 When I began my journey with trying different cakes, I made many flaws within them. I felt saddened by the mishaps and felt unsuccessful in my attempt to create a delicious cake. I learned later on though, no one has to know there are any flaws at all. If a section is burned, cut it off and mold the cake into a design. In this case, if the marble doesn’t mix in properly at least the taste will distract from the lack of swirls.

Add a little butter to the mix, for more of a buttery taste.

Add the marble mix on different section, instead at the stop at once.

Whipped chocolate frosting is an ideal flavor to pair with the cake.

No one can escape the fact of being human, which is imperfection in some areas and greatness in others. A cake cannot escape it either, but at least no one has to know. I admit that it must look appetizing but not perfectly every time. In fact as you become better and more known for the taste, the look will start to matter less. So, the look of perfection must be in the eye of the beholder.
