Torte Cake

Give your dessert a clever name – and tell us about your recipe.

Chocolate Lime Coco-cake

What was the biggest surprise during your baking journey? Did you use any unconventional approaches? What did you learn along the way? Tell us about it!

I decided to bake with coconut flour, which inspired pairing with lime flavors. I wanted a contrasting color – other than artificial lime green – so I added the chocolate glaze. This cake is a hybrid of several recipes with a lot of improvisation… very new for me!

How did you add a Wisconsin twist to your flavors or decoration?

I associate Florida key limes with Wisconsin snow birds.

How did you do?

Pleasantly satisfied.
