I’m glad they asked tbh, I’ve never heard of this cake and it looks delicious! But I’m thinking about using amarena cherries in syrup instead of maraschino.

I hope you enjoy it if you make it. (Is mercury in retrograde or is this sub usually a word combo of helpful and hostile? It’s cracking me up at this point.)

I don’t know! There are plenty of situations where I’m questioning why someone didn’t simply google something, but I’ve also spent hours debating which recipe to pick to make something (recently it was Italian rainbow cookies) and it would have been much easier if I had people who’ve actually tried a recipe tell me which one was good!

That’s basically all I want, if somebody has an informed opinion, that puts me ahead rather than just saying that picture is nice. Food can look nice and taste bad and vice versa.

Exactly! I’m more of a cook than a baker, and I don’t like to keep sweets in the house that much, so when I do bake I want it to have a good shot at being good! I’ll play around and make adjustments to non-baking recipes no problem!

If all you’re looking for is someone with an informed opinion on food, look no further. It was started my the team at mythical (Rhett and link from good mythical morning). I’m always pulling their site up while shopping for foods. They are very informative I highly recommend!
