Claus Meyers Æblekage

Trying to use up the last of the 7kg of apples we picked in September, I tried another Danish recipe: Claus Meyers Æblekage med syrup og cider.

Actually, although some might beg to differ, this cake really is another excuse to continue with my latest interest in food photography, a little harder this time without the brilliant red colour to attract the eye.

Strawberry Mousse Cake

In Denmark, it is tradition to have "lagkage" or a type of layer cake on your birthday. So with a few birthdays to celebrate this past weekend, I was inspired to make a layered Strawberry Mousse Cake. Generally I do not like baking and attempting something like this is definitely out of norm for me. But I am recently inspired to try my hand at food photography and I must admit, seeing as the cake was quite successful, shooting it was equally pleasing.
