Hi. I am Joconde.
This time, I made Mint Chocolate Cake!!!
But truly, I don't like Mint Chocolate.
Why do they put mint in chocolate... I've always wondered.
I saw BTS V Live a while ago, and RM also said that "why do they put toothpaste in chocolate?". I really agree with him.
But also my husband liked mint chocolate so He had kept asking me to make a mint chocolate cake.
I resisted intensely and ignored it thoroughly.
I convinced him, saying that it was a waste to buy a whole bottle for a few drops of mint essence.
Nevertheless, I ended up making Mint Chocolate Cake.
I have to confess that it's one of the best things I have ever done. Hahaha...
One day, I was looking around the Mart, suddenly the Peppermint candy caught my eyes!
The ingredients of mint candy are sugar, starch syrup, and mint essence.
I got an idea to make a sponge cake and whipped cream with this candy.
Tested… tested… all week... Wow~ It was really delicious.
The mint taste is not strong. It is softly fresh and has a mint scent from the inside of the nose...
My family, sister, and a friend tasted it. Everyone loved it. It releases a nice, mild, and fresh mint flavor. But not too sweet.
I am grateful to mint candy. Even I, who hates Mint Chocolate, really enjoyed it.
I tested two mint candy products. They tasted slightly different, but the results were all good.
Even someone who didn't love 'Mint Chocolate' like me would really enjoy this cake. I recommend you this recipe.
Thank you for watching!
