14 Layers...

A couple of weeks ago I found a fabulous looking cake that has 14...yep you read that right...14 layers. I thought it looked interesting and I would try my hand at it. From the store I bought 14 shiny disposable tin cake pans, all the ingredients for the massive amount of batter, and I was ready. It took most of the afternoon and looked quite impressive, but in the end it was just all right. I was expecting my first bite to elicit the "OH GOOD GRAVY THAT IS TOTALLY WORTH ALL THE EFFORT" response, but it sort of didn't. I guess I will just have to try some other creation...oh the sacrifices I make. I have to say I have been on a baking kick lately and instead of eating all the sweet treats I have been pawning them off on the school secretaries. They are starting to love me!

The first of many thin layers...
All stacked up with chocolate icing in between...
My little helpers...
Final product in dark chocolate cream cheese frosting...
And the tada...
