    Compared to other cakes I have made this one took more work, but it is very worth it. I will have to see if I can find the episode for some more tips on them. This was my third year making it, and I try to improve each time! I think to achieve a better "wiggle" a deeper springform may help this...

    Entry #3 - Butterbeer The holidays always involve a Harry Potter movie marathon for us, and I always saw the butterbeer and wanted some myself!
