I've always loved Entenmanns' Marshmallow Devil's Food Cake. So I decided to try and replicate it the other night. :cool:
I used a basic chocolate cake recipe I had lying around from Culinary school a few years ago. As for the marshmallow frosting, I looked online for a decent recipe.

Sorry about the crappy camera phone pikturez. I didn't feel like using my digi.
Anyhow, the cake was delicious as always - very moist. As for the frosting, I might use a different recipe next time. The frosting came out a bit grainy.

:lol: Thanks, I was in the mood to be creative. My pastry skills are a bit rusty, especially with the frosting and decorating. I didn't have all my tools (frosting spatula, etc.) I did have my old cake wheel thingy though.

I wonder if my wife would've preferred culinary school over law school. She's great at both endeavors but I imagine if cuisine was her livelihood, it wouldn't have the same relaxing effect on her.

After completing the first year of this culinary arts school, I decided that it's not what I really wanted to do. I then decided that I wanted to be a teacher. I am not a quitter so I completed the whole two years. It was a fun experience at first but I wasn't too fond of waking up at 6&7AM to cook for a few hours.
I did receive some sort of certification though, I think in food safety and sanitation. I also passed the ProStart program which is accredited with the National Restaurant Assoc. Blah blah blah, now I'm a future history teacher.

Don't forget you can also teach Home-Economics too! Teach kids how to cook tasty food whilst not burning their whole damned house down.

I didn't go to a culinary college or university, after all I was only in high school at the time. I Just went to a private trade school.

Ha, yeah. That was the worst. I've always had pretty long hair, so tying it up and shoving it in the hat was a bitch. Especially because it would always flatten my hair.
I take it you chose a different path in life.
Culinary arts is a cut throat, no time off career.
V4LG7
02-20-2008, 05:58 PM
Yeah, I know. My dad was a chef for 28 years.
I've always enjoyed food and cooking, but doing it for a living is definitely not as enjoyable.
I'd love to be a food critic or a food photographer
Those are the only two careers in the food industry that I would be interested in.
