black forest cake. I have a bride who would like that for her wedding. So I would like to find a recipe that is wonderful, but I don't like that kind of cake Is there anyone here who could recomend a recipe for me??

I read a thread a while back about box cakes. Some bright CC pal recomended using a chocolate cake box mix. They mashed up canned cherries in the food processer. They used the cherry liquid as the water and then folded in the cherry bits into the cake batter. It was an all in one kinda black forest cake, that is so yummy and easy to decorate...It still gives you the same flavor, but yopu do not have to worry about the cherries falling out or bleeding...

Hi, I didn't try that one, but looks good to me, Good luck!!
