Chocolate cake








I baked myself a chocolate cake to celebrate my own birthday.











I baked some cupcakes for the kids. But of course they still want to taste the chocolate cake.




This is a Cosmos Atrosanguineus or commonly knowned as the Chocamocha cosmos. It has a light vanillin scent like chocolate. But I don't think it is edible.













Good Living is an act of intelligence,
by which we choose things
which have an agreeable taste
rather than those which do not.
Brillat-Savarin



A chocolate in the mouth is worth two on the plate.
