My Chocolate Cake Recipe And Other Creative Ideas / Dessert Creative Photos.

Most people really love chocolate! Only thing that is difficult, is to have it in moderation. It is so moreish that it is difficult not to pop another one, in ones mouth!

Here are some ways to eat chocolate and enjoy it a little differently.

1. Add a small block of frozen chocolate into your muffin pan before baking your muffin.
2. Pop a small block in your hot cocoa, milo or coffee for a full delicious and creamy taste.
3. Dip your strawberries in dark or white chocolate up to the middle only. Serve for special occasions.
4. Melt chocolate in a double boiler and then pour onto grease proof paper. Cut into triangles and decorate your next festive cake with them.
5. Cut up a bar one and add to a regular chocolate sauce to add a smooth glossy finish to it. Great to pour over ice cream
6. Cakes and small cupcakes can also be decorated with melted chocolate. Divide a white and brown to give that swirly two toned effect
7. Use chocolate chips in your normal crispy biscuit recipe.
8. Chocolate fondues with banana, strawberries and marshmallows will definitely wow the crowds.
9. Take a plain Easter egg and decorate with your melted chocolate. Even if you only dip half of it with a different colour. White on brown and vice versa.
   10.take some beautiful chocolates in Christmas colors to decorate your table or hang on your Christmas tree by adding a loop of fine cotton.
   Hope you have fun with chocolate.Give us some of your ideas...sure there are plenty out there!

Chocolate and strawberries are a delicious combination. Cherries and chocolate also are a tasty team! The fruit addition detracts from the richness of chocolate. The red colour complements the chocolate in decoration of cakes and desserts.

Layered puddings with cream, fruit and chocolate biscuits or cake bring a new dimension to desserts!

This chocolate walnut tart we were served for tea at a restaurant on our way back from Stellenbosch. It was very rich but delicious!
