Baking Challenge

Give your cake a name based on the ingredients and decoration – and tell us about the origin of your recipe.

Brandy Old Fashioned Upside Down Cake

Tell us about your proudest moment – or humble failure – in this week’s baking challenge.

I made my caramel by by reducing orange and cherry juice to make an old fashioned syrup and spiking in brandy and bitters at the end. The caramel split the first time but I was able to make it work the second time around. Cheers to my fantastic wife Jenni for letting me destroy one section of kitchen after another and cheering me on all the time.

Describe how you added a Wisconsin twist to your creation.

Brandy Old Fashioned sweet, it’ll never be made better than when you’re in Wisconsin!

How did you do?
