AI have seen great things about the WASC recipe but the one for chocolate kinda confused me... Does anyone have a specific recipe for chocolate? Does it have to have almond (in case allergy).
Would this be a good cake for a 3 tiered wedding cake?
Thanks in advance! :)
AYeah I definitely don't want to use coffee in it but I would like a good chocolate cake recipe!

You can ommit the almond extract and just use vanilla. I have rave reviews with kakeladi's chocolate wasc and I do use 1 tbs coffee in it. It intensifies the chocolate flavor incredibly. HTH

AGreat thank you. Will. Both of these work for a 3 tier wedding cake?[@]MBalaska[/@] [@]jumjum[/@]
A[@]jumjum[/@] where can I find that recipe? I looked it up but there are so many different ones.
You can't taste the coffee in the chocolate WASC at all after it's baked. It deepens the chocolate flavor. I also use coffee in my scratch chocolate recipes too. For the chocolate WASC just omit the almond and use vanilla or you don't have to use any extract at all. If you don't want to use coffee for the liquid then just use water. Easy.

You ask for a WASC choco version - just use the original recipe :) !

If you read this post of the recipe you will see that a chocolate version is made by using a chocolate cake mix. If you want a deeper choco flavor, swap in about 1/4 cup cocoa powder instead of that amount of flour.
A[@]Cakepro[/@] You're recipe was amazing! I loved everything about it! I sent you a PM asking for a vanilla recipe if you had one of your own! Thanks!
