I was so excited a few weeks ago, to find out that I won a wonderful package filled with delicious gourmet ingredients from Rodelle®. So, I had created a few recipes featuring their products.
But I’m so busy lately that I have had no time to write the full recipe and share it on the blog, or on social media.
Blogging is hard work sometimes. Lots of pictures to choose from and edit. Plus I have to make sure the recipe is good before sharing it.
Anyway, Rodelle® products are wonderful. I used the gourmet pure vanilla extract and the Dutch processed cocoa powder a few times already. The marble cake I’m sharing today turned out so good, and the rich flavor of vanilla and chocolate couldn’t be more perfect. I really enjoy the Dutch processed cocoa powder. It made the most delicious chocolate glaze. This glaze is actually my mom’s recipe. She uses good cocoa powder too, but the rich flavor of the Dutch process cocoa powder is unbeatable.
The pure vanilla extract is amazing. I also made madeleines and I’ll be sharing the recipe very soon.
Sorry that I have been away from posting new recipes guys, but I’m working on new amazing recipes and I can’t wait to share all of them here on the blog ASAP!
Please keep following me and don’t miss my new recipes!!!
