Now, let me tell you how impatient I am. I think of something I want to do, and I will not rest until it is done. Right away. While things get done more quickly that way, and the determination that comes with it is great, it didn't work out so well for this cake. Lin and I didn't wait long enough for the cake to cool in the pans, so removing it caused it to fall apart a bit. We made the icing while it was baking, so it sort of hardened up a bit before we really could ice it. And then we didn't really have enough to cover the cake. We thought we failed. Beyond failed. We pretty much gave up on it. We didn't even remove it from the wire rack for fear of it falling apart even more. It may not have looked pretty but wow. That icing was so rich and delicious. Not too sweet like most icings are. The cake was moist. They paired perfectly together. Although it was rather hideous, the flavor was great - I'll probably try this cake again.
