What A Delightful Culinary Yummy Treat

This certainly banished the grumpliciousness blues the other day. My Dear wife bake me a Victorian sponge cake that was just beyond words to describe! Fresh cream, fresh strawberries, a gorgeous sponge and wow, my tastebuds went into overload. I haven’t tasted cake like that in years, come to think of it, if ever.

Usually, something hand crafted as beautiful as this would only happen if we were expecting visitors, like the royal family huh um, so I was happy that this tasty, rotund bit of spongy delight was only going to be consumed by wifey and me. More me I hoped.

I don’t think I have ever wolfed a dinner down so fast in all my life. Well, with that sat in front of me, I was trembling with anticipation. The moment soon arrived and of course, I was asked how big a slice I wanted. Being honest I wanted it all! That wasn’t going to happen.

I had a decent sized piece though. Absolute heaven! I may have scoffed my way through my dinner like a man that hasn’t eaten for 3 months, but I was enjoying every molecule of this cake. I was hoping it had half the calories of a normal Victoria sponge so I could have twice as much, but that didn’t work.

Poor me, I had to eat this cake over several nights because of the fresh cream fruit content. Can you imagine what that felt like, night after night? Well, that’s my treat of the week and I’m already looking forward to the next confectionary treat, whenever it might be.

I like to leave a relative link with any post I write, but the only one I could find is Patisserie-Valerie which is a very nice chain of cake shops, but not as nice as my Victoria Sponge.
