River Cafe Chocolate Cake - HELP!

Thread Starter: Marmotte    Started: Wed 26 Nov 2003    Replies: 5

Hi there.
Yesterday, Tue 25th Nov, the river cafe TV program made the most fabolous italian chocolate cake, with no flour, and a rather perculiarly was squashed with a 10kg pumpkin for 1/2h after cooking!!! I didnt manage to note down the recipie, and have been unable to find it on the web. Can anyone help? If I have to buy a book ... hope not ... then does anyone know which river cafe book its in?

Hope you can help - Thanks!!

Rose

Hi Marion,

The recipe for the Christmas cake is in the book that I've told Rose about, "River Cafe Italian Kitchen".

See my post above.

Hi Rose,

Unfortunately, you're going to have to buy the book, or borrow it from a library, only we're not allowed to post the recipes from the River Cafe on here cos of copyright regulations. Sorry. :(

The book it's featured in is "River Cafe Italian Kitchen" and it contains all of the recipes from the TV series. It's available on Amazon.co.uk for £8.80 instead of £11.00

I didn't see this particular episode, but from looking in the book think the cake is called Pressed Chocolate Cake.
