Jubilee cake
I thought for a long time which cake to make for my daughter-in-law for her jubilee birthday. I wanted the cake to contain everything she likes. Chocolate, hazelnuts, cappuccino and coffee liqueur. I think I succeeded. The cake is so creamy that it almost doesn't crust. As she and my best friend, I wanted the cake to be special in appearance. And I succeeded there, judging by her and the enthusiasm of her guests. I called the cake jubilee, because it is made for her jubilee birthday. I dedicate the recipe to Zinia, who she liked the cake and thought it was too complicated to make.
