Candle in the Attic Window
This time around I was sent an anthology by Innsmouth Free Press to review, a new compilation of gothic-style fiction called Candle in the Attic Window and edited by Silvia Moreno-Garcia and Paula R. Stiles.
The anthology included a number of poems along with the stories, however they are not reviewed below. Although varying somewhat in quality, I found most of them somewhat disappointing and as a whole, eminently forgettable; luckily, not so the stories.
I am fan of the gothic genre and I find I prefer the creepiness of gothics to a more gory style of fiction or the shock fiction that surfaces from time to time, so I had high hopes for this release.
Without further preamble then, the stories.
The Seventh Picture, by Orrin Grey
H.P. Lovecraft & Robert W. Chambers meet The Blair Witch Project to interesting effect in this story by Orrin Grey. The story focuses around a group of young filmmakers making a documentary about a hack horror-movie creator, whose only claim to fame was the sudden way he died whilst filming his seventh film, The King in Yellow.
The King in Yellow is a fictional device first written about by Robert W. Chambers and incorporated into the Cthulhu Mythos by Lovecraft. It is a play whose first act is supposedly fairly normal, but whose second act reveals such irresistible and disturbing truths that even reading the screenplay drives people mad.
The central idea behind the seventh picture—though in excellent Lovecraftian style this is implied and hinted at rather than ever actually explained—is that the filmmaker has somehow acquired a copy of The King in Yellow, and decided to make a film of it; and it was this film they were making when the house burned down and everyone was killed.
The story follows the documentary crew as they spend a night in the half-ruined house and discover that the film was not lost in the fire, as had been thought, but boarded up in a secret compartment along with a long-dead body, presumably the director himself. Overcome with curiosity, they watch the film, and meet the same end that the previous film crew did.
The story was well-told and atmospheric, and was an excellent way to start the collection.
Housebound, by Don D'Ammassa
I think this story was attempting to be quite creepy and scary, which is understandable as the core conceit of being trapped in a house that is constantly changing its layout is one that could lend itself to that sort of story. It doesn't quite pull it off, however, and, although entertaining, the story seems to me a work of fantasy rather than of gothic horror. There is no real feeling of malevolence from the house, and with good reason as the rather ambiguous ending seems to suggest the house has more benign than evil intentions.
What you end with, then, is more of a psychological character study within the fantastic confines of a magical house. It's interesting, but I'm not sure it fits with the tone of the anthology; particularly coming on the heels of such a classically gothic story as "The Seventh Picture."
Stone Dogs, by Paul Jessup
I loved this story.
"Stone Dogs" is somewhat confusing at times. A lot of things are implied and hinted at but not completely explained, which is a common and effective trick of this style of horror, but the central idea behind the story itself was so well-presented that I was disappointed when the story finished. Personally, I think a longer work could be drawn out of this story to great effect.
The story is told through the diary of a young schoolgirl, who we discover from her words is of the low self-esteem, somewhat chubby and unhappy variety (or at least that is how she sees herself). A freak storm closes down the school and leaves the students trapped there, living out of classrooms and sleeping in the gym; a prospect that must be hell for someone who finds school itself is so unpleasant.
The first hint of the fantastic comes from a book that the main character is constantly reading: a work of fantasy that she says constantly changes each time she reads it. What makes the story so effective is the way the protagonist's surroundings change gradually over time but are never specifically pointed out as "strange." As the changes happen and she is living through them, she never realises quite how strange things are getting, and indeed at first it isn't clear even to the reader. By the end of the story we discover that they are no longer simply trapped in a school by a snowstorm, but are trapped in an ice-covered world filled with giants, magic and monsters, whilst around her the school has taken a definite turn toward Lord of the Flies territory.
City of Melted Iron, by Bobby Cranestone
"The City of Melted Iron" is an attempt to modernise the classic "Indian Burial Ground" story, where trappings of modern humanity have been built upon the sacred ground of an earlier culture, unknowing—or uncaring—of the supernatural things that might lurk beneath.
Our protagonist is a worker who lives deep within a factory in a somewhat dystopian mini-society of labourers who seem to live out their entire lives squirming through the iron bowels of the foundry. They aren't alone in there, however, and with alarming regularity workers end up killed, supposedly by the unquiet spirit of the sacred land the foundry was built upon.
Inevitably we come face to face with the creature and are asked a simple question. The answer leads the protagonist not only to survive but to prosper, though he can't help but think about the cost he may have paid to do so.
In the end, the story was not a bad one, but did not stand out from the pack and ended up being mostly forgettable.
The Shredded Tapestry, by Ryan Harvey
This story pulls an expectation switch on you by beginning like a werewolf story. We have a lonely foreigner, pursued through a dark forest by a strange beast and eventually finding sanctuary at a strange old monastery whose monks are not overjoyed to see him, despite being from of foreign extraction themselves.
From there we are drawn into an interesting, if somewhat familiar, tale of abuse and betrayal that has led the monastery itself to be haunted by a spirit of vengeance risen from hell itself, and a monk turned to dark arts to avoid facing the consequences of his actions. The underlying tale is a little too well-worn to be overly engaging, but the story is told well and the ending is quite satisfying.
Desideration, by Gina Flore
This is a dark and disturbing tale of obsession and a supernatural predator. A lonely woman spends her evenings watching out her window for sight of a strange man who comes by occasionally and seems to look straight up at her. She is torn with longing, both emotional and physical, for this stranger whom she bumps into, seeming by chance, on several occasions.
Gradually she finds herself sickening, unable to rise from her bed but just as unable to stop watching for the stranger. As she reaches her weakest, she finds him at her door.
Short, moving and well-written.
Victorians, by James S. Dorr
I have heard it said that the purpose of art is to evoke an emotional response. If this is true, than "Victorians," by James S. Dorr, is a successful work of art, as it certainly evoked a response from me. Absolute disgust. The story was wholly unpleasant.
There was nothing wrong with the writing, which was quite competent, and the story itself was well-framed and -executed, but I found the content itself repellent on a deep gut-level, something that only one other story has ever made me feel.
The story itself follows a man who has grown up and got married, and in so doing come into his inheritance—the family home. He hasn't been back there ever since he was a very young child, when his father died and his mother disappeared, but as he reenters the house memories flood back. He remembers his father's death, he remembers his part in the events, and he finds his mother.
He is cleverly compared to his father through his meeting of a local waitress, and events are set up to repeat themselves.
New Archangel, by Desmond Warzel
"New Archangel" is a fairly typical ghost story sent in Alaska and follows across a century or so, from Russian occupation to the destruction of the castle involved.
The story is well-told through the use of letters and dispatches, slowly revealing the events that led to the haunting and the consequences of the haunting in a disjointed fashion. It is clever and entertaining, but at its heart there is nothing really original in the story and it left me somewhat wanting.
The Snowman, by E. Catherine Tobler
A story of a woman haunted by the love she let go, told through the eyes of her niece who has come with her parents to her aunt's house after her death. The house is haunted by the spirit of that lost love, now a spirit of ice and snow, until the niece is able to show how the love was remembered, regretted and never forgotten.
The imagery in this story was quite effective, however it did seem at times somewhat disjointed and could have benefited from a clearer, or perhaps lengthier, buildup.
In His Arms in the Attic, by Alexis Brooks de Vita
"In His Arms in the Attic" is an emotional character study of a woman destroyed by the death of the one she loved, to the point that life itself seems pointless. In her desperation she returns to the townhouse of her childhood in New Orleans, a place suffused with Vodoun magic and supposedly host to a strange ghostly ball each year on the night of Mardi Gras. Her memories of childhood lead her to believer that here, in this place, her dead love will be waiting for her.
The buildup is poignant and well-written, which unfortunately left the ambiguity of the ending a little disappointing. The piece reeks of gothic atmosphere, however, and is a quite entertaining story.
Hitomi, by Nelly Geraldine Garcia-Rosas
Stories of insomniacs going mad or seeing reality as-it-truly-is are not new (there is even a game based on the idea) but they are not overly common, either, and this one is particularly done well. The protagonist, long without sleep, takes lodging at a strange house seemingly inhabited by the author of a novelette written during the Edo period and her cats.
Drawn into the strange supernatural house, he is faced with the true horror of Hitomi and finds himself forever unable to escape.
Very short but filled with atmosphere, this story was quite satisfyingly gothic.
Tarocchi dei d'este, by Martha Hubbard
This story, set in what felt at least like the old Italian city-states, focuses around a part of Tarocchi cards (similar to modern tarot cards) hand-painted and so beautiful they draw whoever looks on them into an obsessive need to possess them.
Much attention is paid to the interplay of the court where the story takes place, and the jealousies and ambitions that twist through it. The story is told through the point of view of three main characters: a scheming servant, his mistress, and his naive niece.
The mistress, who collects Tarocchi decks, sends her servant to fetch her latest acquisition. When he arrives, he finds the painter driven mad by the deck and having murdered his lover. Falling under the thrall of the deck himself, he immediately begins scheming to acquire the deck for himself.
Events unfold in succession from there, interweaving the motivations of all the characters brilliantly to create a believable tale of lust, betrayal and obsession that leads to the destruction of them all. Definitely one of the highlights of the collection.
Elizabeth on the Island, by Joshua Reynolds
This story reminded me a great deal of a classic story by H. P. Lovecraft, "The Outsider." It is a story of the monster unknowing, trying to come to grips with its surroundings and understand its purpose. It has an excellent atmosphere and a very ambiguous story that hints, rather than explains, the backstory quite effectively.
Dark Epistle, by Jim Blackstone
This was definitely one of the standout stories in the collection, tied with "Liminal Medicine" (see below) for the number one spot. "Dark Epistle" is set in the Holy Land and follows a spy sent by the Pope to determine the extent of the heresy of the Knights Templar.
In another story reminiscent of Lovecraft, this time similar to "The Mountains of Madness," the protagonist is introduced to some of the secrets of the Templar order and sent to discover the truth for himself to a secret temple, beneath the city. There he discovers the horrible truth of the third "day" of creation.
Liminal Medicine, by Jesse Bullington
Rural Cambodia is not a location I have seen often represented in fiction, but as a setting for this gothic story of a doctor returned to her birthplace it works fantastically. As she returns, she has to face not only the beliefs of the locals, beliefs she has long since discarded as an educated modern woman, but she has to face the truth of what happened to her parents, and the truth about the witch who serves as healer to the community.
On the Doorstep, by Leanna Renee Hieber
An ultimately forgettable story about a psychic during the Civil War era, forced at the end of her life to break the strictures placed on her to save the life of a man whose life isn't worth saving.
Frozen Souls, by Sarah Hans
A story of a Chinese woman immigrant posing as a man in order to get work blasting on the mountains. An accident leaves her in danger of death, but she is rescued by the unquiet spirit of one of the famous Donner Party. Her secret comes out and the foreman, about to rape her, comes face to face with the spirit himself.
An interesting story, but somewhat pale in comparison to other stories in the collection.
Nine Nights, by T.S. Bazelli
This is probably the creepiest story in the entire collection, and the one that is most likely to haunt your mind afterwards, leaving you disturbed and disquieted. A young girl is present at the funeral of her cousin, only to find her body being invaded by her cousin's spirit. Gradually a secret of the family is revealed and black magic leaves two souls fighting for a single body. The ending in particular is terrible and well-written.
Vodka Attack!, by Meddy Ligne
This story was far too upbeat and off-the-wall for a gothic story and traded dark, creepiness for a somewhat lighter tone. It seems strange to consider a story set on the eastern front of World War II as "light" in tone, and certainly there is death and gloom in the story, however the story doesn't seem to be able to grab hold of that gloomy atmosphere and ends up feeling like it doesn't really belong in a gothic collection.
That said, it's not a criticism of the story itself, which focuses on a Siberian shaman who uses vodka to turn a captured Nazi POW into a "man-dragon." It's over the top and highly entertaining, if somewhat lacking in goth.
The Ascent, by Berit K. N. Ellingsen
Occasionally you can read a story and respect what they are trying to achieve, but be unable to connect with it at all. This is a story like that. Ostensibly about free-diving, risk-taking and having to face fear when things go terribly wrong and our expectations about safety are subverted by the unknown, but it took a long meandering time to get to the point. In the end, it just seemed to fizzle out without really invoking the emotional response I suspect it wanted to.
Not a great way to end the collection.
Some of the stories in this collection were fantastic, some were not so great, but on the whole this was a collection brimming with gothic atmosphere and attitude and well worth a look for any fans of the genre.

"Well I took my new Outlaw SS out for a spin on Saturday. Let me tell you, it didn't disappoint. Miles and miles of double-track fire roads, and more challenging single-track trails built especially for mountain biking. The Outlaw SS handled like a mountain-bike Ferrari, effortlessly traversing every twist and turn of the gnarly trails. … I choose to pedal and go through the gears at all times, as opposed to passively letting the motor do all the work. This way I still get a reasonable workout and get to extend my ride from eight miles to 19 miles. The bike is absolutely a beauty to look it. The candy orange paint job with yellow lettering is gorgeous. The quality brake and transmission components are rock-solid, top-shelf high-performance all the way. The 2.4 inch knobby Trail King tires are fantastic. They dug in well and really hugged the corners and took on all obstacles, whether it be rocks or roots, with non-slip precision on a day when things were a little slick and wet. "
Robert Stevens, Peabody, MA
"Outlaw EX: I wish everyone could have this kind of e-bike. Your company is the best... Thanks for the "ultimate alternative" to the Stealth Fighter and Optibike. You did it right.... Very nice in many ways. Got it on Saturday and took my time unboxing it. (packed very well) Appearance is massive - rims & tires, front forks and frame...This is an impressive piece of work... I know what it takes from "start to finish" for something like this to happen... Kudos to you..... (and all involved). It is great looking. The grips are attractive and the ADJUSTABLE STEM is fantastic. Another "THANK YOU"... The charcoal grey Outlaw has a kind of industrial look to it. That's good in my book and I'm very satisfied. Many thanks..."

"I just got my Phantom X2 and my wife is so impressed she wants a Prodeco ebike too. We're going to get her a Stride because she needs the lowered bar to mount the bike. Mine is the 2013 model and hers will be too."
Rick Walker, Panama City, FL
"Itasca sports has been a dealer in electric bikes now for close to 14 years. I just completed the assembly on the new Stride R model womens step thru bike. Well done. It is sharp looking, light, user friendly, comfortable, and has nice componentry. This bike will be an easy sell here for us in Northern Minnesota! Right now no other electric bike company holds a candle to what you guys have! Thank you!"
Sam Smith
Itasca Sports, Inc.
"I've gone for over 100km (60 miles) since receiving my Phantom X at the end of Feb and what a pleasure it is. I ride it on trails, streets ...this bike goes nearly everywhere with no problem. The bike weighs ~55 lbs but it's not much of a problem to pedal it. I certainly wouldn't worry if I ran out of juice :) The PX is the Hummer of ebikes, rugged, solid. I recommend to everyone interested in a ebike to get a Prodeco (Technologies)."
Gordon Armstrong
"My shiny new Genesis 500 taking a break on the Venice Beach boardwalk during a 13 mile ride from West L.A. through Marina del Rey. Great bike guys!"

What Oregon doesn't need is the public employee unions pulling strings on the Demos to keep the money pouring into salaries and benefits. The Demo leaders are 'so beholden' to campaign financing (by the unions), any attempt to reign in the costs are immediately thwarted ((House Speaker Tina Kotek being the prime example).
According to most legislative Demos, a reduction in PERS funding only comes with an increase in taxes. Huh? Attempting to reduced costs can only be achieved by taking more from the citizens of the state? One doesn't need genius status to see where this 'extra money' will find a home.
And if PERS reforms are shot down by the courts as usual, all that will be left is those new taxes.
Here's a novel idea -- why not take all the bribes (campaign contributions) out of state politics? That's where the trouble begins. Candidates would be forced to run on personal merit, rather being able to simply outspend their opponents. This could eliminate many of the puppets now holding office or positions within the state government.
In effect, such a law would free up the reps and senators to actually do the business of the state properly, and take away the leverage that now allows outside influence to demand favorable legislation, seemingly at every turn.
Watching political action groups be left outside the chambers, complaining there is no representation, having to deal with whatever the legislature decides, might be quite entertaining. Gee, that's exactly the situation most Oregon voters find themselves in each session.
Anyone against a level playing field?

I use this product to store game files, and it has performed well. As with all flash drives, I wish it featured a better write speed, but knowing this, I have tried to eliminate frequent writes as much as possible. Because I needed Windows symlinks to offload some of the writes, I have formatted it NTFS and disabled the journal, and the drive has met my expectations with this configuration.

Great drive. I have extra straps for the drive and I knew that going in (you can find them at eBay cheap). If you don't use a strap the pendrive can be too small as it would be way too easy to loose.The construction is solid built and there is no removable cap to loose. Very nice.

But it was probably the Counts of Louvain who gave a decisive boost to its urban development when, in the mid-11th century, they built a castle and created a chapter of monks devoted to Saint Gudula.The political history of Brussels didn't begin until the 13th century. That was the time when it became the main residence of the Dukes of Brabant and of their successors, the Dukes of Burgundy (15th century) and Emperor Charles V (16th century).Over the course of the centuries, Brussels became a powerful city economically. It's undeniable that this progress was closely linked to the city's success as a residential and political centre. That growth was supported in 1561 with the official opening of the Willebroek canal.As a result of its status, Brussels became a preferred setting for shows of strength. In the 17th century, it was subjected full force to the armed battles between the France of Louis XIV and its European rivals. The French army bombarded the lower part of the city. The rebuilding of the Grand-Place became a town-planning experiment that was unique in Europe, with the most modern and the most conservative examples of architecture of the time standing alongside each other there, with neither winning or losing.In 1815, Napoleon's defeat in Waterloo to the south of Brussels brought an end to the French revolutionary period. The Netherlands were unified and Brussels shared the role of capital city with The Hague. In 1830, the whole of Europe was shaken by liberal movements that challenged the existing conservative order. The Dutch were then driven out and the foundations were laid for a new State, Belgium. Brussels became the capital city, residence of King Leopold I and seat of the central political institutions. The second half of the 20th century also saw Brussels becoming the de facto capital of the European Union. The contribution of successive waves of immigration and of the European institutions turned Brussels into a unique multicultural city in Europe. In order to get to know Brussels, there are places you just have to go and see ASAP! On and around the Grand-Place On and around the Grand-PlaceThe Grand-Place is a Unesco World Heritage site. Its construction began in the 15th century; first, some covered market halls and a few guild houses, then a Town Hall to establish the authority of this centre of trade. It was bombarded by the French army in 1695 and almost completely destroyed. But, like a phoenix, it was to rise from the ashes in 3 years. This is why four styles stand side by side there: it's a hotchpotch of Gothic, opulent Baroque, Neoclassical and Neogothic.

In Brussels, the years from 1893 saw houses spring up that were unlike any others before, and every element of everyday life was adorned with organic or geometric lines: façades, wrought ironwork, mosaics, furniture, tableware, carpets, etc. The best way of discovering Art Nouveau is to visit the Horta Museum or walk around Square Ambiorix.

mmm true. I'm still hunting around at what stick to get. I think I will definitely get something more 'generic' so it is more suitable for general aviation. Really just wanted to stay clear of saitek due to being burned in the past with equipment failure, and reading a few unhappy forums posts (driver issue) and the warthog HOTAS looks smexeh.
unfortunately theres just not many options bar saitek. you'd have to go CH products but that means having to buy separate rudder pedals and throttlesm, or the thrusmaster gear.

"Missy, you need to change your last name," the shackled man in the orange prison jumpsuit said into the receiver, staring blankly at his 15-year-old daughter's tear-stained face.
"That's when I knew that these things were true," recalls Melissa Moore, now 33.
Until that day, the man behind the glass partition, Keith Hunter Jesperson, was simply her father; the one who used to tuck her into bed at night "like a burrito."
Now, in her eyes, he was also the convicted serial killer plucked straight from the newspaper headlines who was serving multiple life sentences; the one who had bloodied her family name forever.
Jesperson, the so-called "Happy Face Killer," murdered eight women when he was a long-haul truck driver in the early 1990s. Jesperson earned his nickname by sending confessions to journalists and police departments around the country to gain notoriety, signing the admissions with a happy face.
That visit at Washington's Clark County jail as he awaited trial was Moore's last with her father for many years. She eventually severed ties with him and took her husband's surname when she married at 21.
Moore is a part of an exclusive group, those who share blood relations with someone perceived by the public as a monster: a mass murderer. With that unenviable tie can come isolation, guilt, grief, fear, disbelief, even post-traumatic stress disorder, in addition to a very public stigma.
In the aftermath of a massacre, questions and criticism are frequently directed at the parents, spouses and children of the accused. The public sometimes sympathizes, often criticizes and even goes so far as to blame family members for the actions of their kin.
In documents released Thursday, it was revealed that 20-year-old Sandy Hook shooter Adam Lanza's mother (whom he shot in the forehead before turning his guns on 26 more victims, as well as himself, at the elementary school) gave him money earmarked to purchase weapons and allowed him to keep a gun safe in his bedroom.
Whether they provided the weaponry, ignored warning signs or had no clue what was to come, the Lanzas, Loughners and Klebolds of the world are essentially guilty by association.
Michael Price, a professor of evolutionary moral psychology at Brunel University in London, said people are hardwired to defend their kin, like Moore did before she realized her father's guilt.
"There will be strong psychological and emotional incentives to defend and remain loyal to the family member, and to delude and self-deceive themselves about the reality of their relative's guilt," Price said.
At the same time, Price said individuals may be prone to protect their own reputations and disassociate themselves from the killer to avoid being ostracized.
"They may experience anger at the relative for putting them in such a conflicted position," Price said.
Recently Lanza's father, Peter, met with Robbie and Alissa Parker, the parents of 6-year-old victim Emilie, to discuss his son's actions.
"One of the main reasons that I wanted to speak to him was I wanted to just speak to him as a father, one father to another father," Robbie Parker told CNN's Piers Morgan. "And I understand that, despite the circumstances, that he lost his son and that he needed to grieve that as well, just as much as I needed to grieve my daughter. And so I wanted to express those condolences to him, and I felt that we were able to do that for each other."
Sandra L. Brown of the Institute for Relational Harm Reduction & Public Pathology Education said relatives of killers can initially be categorized into two groups: the family members who recognized the pathological nature of the violent perpetrators and those who did not.
"The more psychopathic they are, the better they are about hiding it," Brown said.
In Moore's case, she looked back on her childhood; what had she missed? She remembered playing games with her wavy-haired father and going to laughter-filled meals with him and her siblings at the local truck stop.
She also remembered a bitter divorce and her dad killing their pet dog by beating its head in right in front of her. "But I didn't like to remember that."
"When I was growing up, my dad had put so much pride in my last name, and he gave me lessons on how to be a good citizen," Moore said. "My name was now known for these horrific murders, and it started to make me wonder if I was like my dad."
Brown says it's normal for the family members of killers to doubt their own moral integrity. The apple doesn't fall far from the tree, right?
Soon after her father's arrest, Moore's friends started making excuses not to hang out with her. She later found out that their parents instructed them to avoid her.
Brown said the more horrendous the crime, the more isolated the family becomes.
It wasn't until Moore wrote her book, "Shattered Silence," that she finally opened up.

The best educational information can be found here with all the concepts are very professional, there is still another approach to food, and it is its visual appeal. Anyone who has taken pictures of the dinner they know it is difficult to capture the sense of the picture. A food photographer must take both introductory and advanced photography classes. They may deal with subjects other than food, but would know the ins and outs of lighting, framing and editing that will enhance their image. With this background there is a career as a photographer for the magazine of food, menus, and cookbooks. And Are you taught to cook by parents or cook, you may not realize at first that cooking is a science. Involve cooking techniques like grilling, roasting, baking, caramel, and more. Most of the cooking you can rely on instinct, but you still understand little about what happens when the food has a different exposure to heat. Classroom learning and the science of food and the chefs have come to bring them to improve their control over their cuisine and understanding to be the best one. You may or may not be a fantastic cook myself, but what you really love is to taste the food and talk about it. To become a food critic, you need to improve your writing skills you can do with a class of English and creative writing.

Want to know how this works? Read all about it here.
- Butter a 20cm round cake tin (7.5cm deep) and line the base. Preheat the oven to fan 140C/conventional 160C/ gas 3. Break 200g good quality dark chocolate in pieces into a medium, heavy-based pan. Cut 200g butter into pieces and tip in with the chocolate, then mix 1 tbsp instant coffee granules into 125ml cold water and pour into the pan. Warm through over a low heat just until everything is melted – don't overheat. Or melt in the microwave on Medium for about 5 minutes, stirring half way through.
- While the chocolate is melting, mix 85g self-raising flour, 85g plain flour, ¼ bicarbonate of soda, 200g light muscovado sugar, 200g golden caster sugar and 25g cocoa powder in a big bowl, mixing with your hands to get rid of any lumps. Beat 3 medium eggs in a bowl and stir in 75ml (5 tbsp) buttermilk.
- Now pour the melted chocolate mixture and the egg mixture into the flour mixture, stirring just until everything is well blended and you have a smooth, quite runny consistency. Pour this into the tin and bake for 1 hour 25- 1 hour 30 minutes – if you push a skewer in the centre it should come out clean and the top should feel firm (don't worry if it cracks a bit). Leave to cool in the tin (don't worry if it dips slightly), then turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- When the cake is cold, cut it horizontally into three. Make the ganache: chop 200g good quality dark chocolate into small pieces and tip into a bowl. Pour a 284ml carton of double cream into a pan, add 2 tbsp golden caster sugar, and heat until it is about to boil. Take off the heat and pour it over the chocolate. Stir until the chocolate has melted and the mixture is smooth.
- Sandwich the layers together with just a little of the ganache. Pour the rest over the cake letting it fall down the sides and smoothing to cover with a palette knife. Decorate with grated chocolate or a pile of chocolate curls. The cake keeps moist and gooey for 3-4 days.
Recipe from Good Food magazine, April 2004
Comments, questions and tips
Excellent, easy cake! I prepared this for my 20th Birthday and everyone loved it! It's so rich and dense and exciting, you ought to serve smaller pieces since it's hard for anyone to eat a whole piece at one going. Absolutely adore it and most definitely will do it again! Absolute success! I could not do better cake for my celebration. I'm just wondering should I try and make this into muffins ...
This is a great recipe, although I reduced the amount of sugar the second time I baked it as is was a bit sweet for me.
I baked this in my new Zila Cake Mould (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JvXe0OsxjnA) and added some Mascarpone cream and fresh strawberries to make it less sinful, therefore I can now justify eating it after 8pm:):)
I live this cake and it goes down a storm whether it be at work or at home, my only issue is that it rises in the middle then sinks when it cools. It's definitely cooked and it happens both when splitting the mix in to two tins or just using the one. Personally I prefer using two tins, as it saves cutting and reduced cooking time.
I would also say this is quite a difficult cake to manoeuvre I have ended up cutting it in half before it falls apart and cannot be put back together.
One more thing, sometimes that amount of ganache doesn't cover the sides. Thank you :)
I made this for the second time , and the result was fantastic .
This time I made the ganache first and put it in the fridge once cooled , it thicken up perfectly , but it does take time guys you can't rush it , but its well worth the wait ,
With the chocolate I used half milk & half dark chocolate in the cake & milk chocolate on the ganache , personal preference ! I made the sponge in to tins , like when i do a sponge obviously you cut the cooking time down too , cooks great !
I made it for my friends birthday they absolutely loved it , it was so moist and just amazing I highly recommend it , I always read the reviews , so please take my advice and make the ganache first !
Made this today for a 90th birthday cake - it was really really good. It took slightly less in my oven but I know my oven quite well so I knew that I needed to check.
I personally would never attempt to cut it in 3, I cut it in half into two the morning after (the day of serving - it's very soft when it comes out of the oven hence why u left it till the day after). It's quite delicate, you just need to be careful with it but it is a cake after all...
When topping it I popped it in the fridge for ten minutes and let the ganache start to firm up to become workable so I could get it nice and thick on sides then put it in the fridge to get nice and fudgey set.
I didn't use any ganache in the middle i used carnation caramel yum yumAll in all - fabulous and will be making again - I typically don't really like cake because I find it bland but this was a real treat
To avoid a mess of cutting the cake I just pour the mixture in to two sandwich tins and bake for about 40 mins at 140 degrees. Much easier and less mess. To decorate I use chocolate curls from Tesco but next time I will try chopped up Flake pieces. I used the recommended amount of coffee and didn't find the taste too strong contrary to other comments and I only used 300g of sugar which I think can be reduced even more as it still tastes quite sweet. Overall it's a great cake which I plan to make again soon!
Made this for my Partner's 60th birthday. Easy to make, and very nice, although may stick to a traditional chocolate sponge in future, as this one sunk slightly in the middle and takes a long time to cook. I only have a tabletop conventional oven, which will fit two 7" sandwich tins, but not two 8" ones, and I don't usually have much success with deep tins in this oven, so filled two 7" lined sandwich tins three quarters full and made two muffins with the leftover mixture. The back of my oven cooks hotter than the front, which means turning them partway. I didn't have any plain flour so used all self-raising, and I couldn't get buttermilk in time, so made some with 280ml of milk and three quarters of a teaspoon of cream of tartar. Keep stirring it - I warmed mine in the microwave for 30 seconds, then left it to rest, stirring occasionally - then it thickens slightly. This is supposed to be a buttermilk substitute, and having used buttermilk in cakes before, it does make them light and fluffy. Made it a day ahead. Turned after 45 minutes, covered with foil after 55 mins to prevent burning. Still took an hour and a half! Used the chocolate ganache recipe from Nigella's custard sponge, as done this before and it's good. Plus the custard buttercream from that recipe too, with some strawberry jam - so it's not totally chocolate.
I'm quite a fan of chocolate cake to say the least and this was very, very good indeed. Incredibly rich and stays soft and moist for days. I do, however, change the recipe slightly: only half a tbsp of coffee granules and using half dark and half milk chocolate instead of all dark, so it's not too strong. The ganache is very runny as people have mentioned, so instead I use 300g of chocolate and only 275ml of double cream, and then leaving to cool before using on the cake. SO GOOD.

Dear Friends, Customers and Vendors,
Advanced Polymer, Inc. would like to thank everyone for their concern and understanding the last few days. We are fortunate that none of our employees experienced any major damages, other than the inconvenience of power outages.Although we have redundant communication procedures here in NJ, all failed due to the devastation in the area. The experience of Hurricane Sandy has caused us to learn, be better prepared and hopefully prevent similar situations in the future.
We are glad to be fully operational with all power, communication and services up and running. Thanks to all our friends, customers and vendors for your concern – all of us at Advanced Polymer, Inc. appreciate it.
Our wishes are with all who did not fare as well in Sandy's path.
Best regards,
Advanced Polymer, Inc.
