Today is my wife's birthday.  Who wouldn't want a chocolate crusted orange flavored cheese cake with an orange flavored; chocolate ganache, truffles and chocolate shavings for toppings?  Home made aranchello makes this a special birthday cake.

Happy birthday to your wife!

It really looks great cake!

I don't have energy to make cakes for a week... I wish you were my neighbor...

Have a great birthday for your partner,

Akiko

Sorry to hear you were under the weather.  Hopefully you will better soon and back to old baking self.  If you were my neighbor, we would eating a fairly fine, if monochromatic, cheese cake right now!

Looks and sounds delish but what is aranchell? Couldn't find it on google, even!

Wow DA...what an incredible looking cake....if it tastes as good as it looks I may gain 10 lbs. just looking.

My wife is the cake baker in my household so I will have to show her your creation.

Happy B-day to your wife.

Regards,
Ian

 

An idiot, probably!

Lovely cake and surely very tasty. I'll show that to my husband: "Look, what other husbands do for their dear wives..." (reproachful voice, saintly expression, whistful smile).

Happy birthday to you wife,

Karin

It tasted pretty good too, but what huge truffle doesrn't?  You might want to get a nice dinner and bottle of wine to go with that cake you hubby will be pleased to make...... to keep you slaving in that hot kitchen churing out that fine bread :-).
