COFFEE IN A TRIFLE....Simple & Impressive Dessert for coffee lovers!
12 November 2007
'COFFEE IN A TRIFLE'...
Here starts a brand new week of coffee opportunities. This happens to me every November, when coffee is my favourite ingredient in my month of the 'Scorpio'! In my words, there are very few things that I would attach an 'automatic-droolamatic' quotient to. One of them is this...'Coffee in a Trifle' as I choose to call it, which I made up as I went along the way. Baked a coffee flavoured sponge this morning, for a birthday cake later this week. Nicked some crumbs from the cake, layered it with coffee flavoured whipped cream...attained nirvana in the first bite! This is a must for serious coffee lovers, and recommended for those who would like a change from chocolate. The flavour of coffee grows on you...my kids stand testimony to that! They hungrily lap up my coffee flavoured creations, savouring every last crumb. DH is also a firm coffee addict now, all thanks to me!
These are just the pictures; I promise to post the recipe with the cake that I plan to post later this week. And will try and update this post alongside too.Until then...SIGH, what would we do without coffee?

Your blog is a treat to the eyes. You seem to have an innate sense to ferret out things that not only are aesthetically pleasing, but I'm sure taste wonderful, too. I will be trying some of your recipes soon! A pleasure to visit you!

Oh no! I just typed out this long comment, wonder where it went!! :((

Ok, done deal, blogger ate it up :((
I'll try again :)
This was my first me-me too, I'll just tell you what I make out of them!
I think me-me's are just a way to talk about yourself :) They can be of different themes but they always revolve around you. For example "Life In Fours" me-me tells us what your four favorite foods are, what are your four favorite holiday spots etcetra etcetra.. I have a link to Musical's (of Musicalskitchen.blogspot.com) "Life In Fours" me-me in my Street Food post. You can check out hers in addition to mine to get an idea... So the point is just to get to know each other more!
And last but not the least, do it only if you want to! :)
Cheers!
