I had access to a bunch of edible gold leaf a couple of years ago, before I had any idea what to do with it. Not that I still could do anything presentable, but I do have a hint of what others with talent like yours could do! Glad you found this cake to be perfect. Next time I'm going to use almond meal to get a smoother texture.<br />NancyNancy/n.o.ehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12870024363382414106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34139676.post-21944236470753706032009-04-15T22:03:00.000-07:002009-04-15T22:03:00.000-07:00Oh my gah, Liz.
