Author Notes
Right here’s the chocolate cake I invented and made at my marriage ceremony closing summer. I’m gluten-free/low dairy and I’ve bought chums who are soy-free, nut-free, and legume-free, so I needed something that would work for every person there. (The vegan gluten-free cupcakes bear been on the aspect for the vegans.) Everyone stated it became the handiest marriage ceremony cake they’d ever tasted–even our marriage ceremony photographer! My husband and I are expansive Inexperienced Lantern humorous e book fans, so having a Inexperienced Lantern cake complete with action figures correct perceived to suit (hence the image). —beyondcelery
