I made Sundae's "Ultimate Chocolate Cake" recipe today. When I first looked at the recipe, the thing that stumped me weren't the UK measurements but the different sugars and flour. Luckily, my googling was productive. I found out that an acceptable substitute for golden caster sugar and muscovado sugar is light brown sugar. Also, I found how to make self-raising flour. I'm sure the cake would've tasted better if I had used good quality ingredients, but it was good enough for me. I ended up not make ganache because I forgot to buy chocolate to make it. And lastly, I made cupcakes rather than cake, hihi.

The reason why I had wanted to try this recipe is because I had tried this one chocolate cupcake at one of those gourmet cupcake shop, and it was really good. (someone else bought it and let me try, hihi.) I refuse to pay over $3 for a cupcake when I am most capable of make decent ones. Arrogant? Maybe but at least I won't be wasting money on cupcakes. (emergency, brb)
