Bea, looks yummy! So do all of your other recipes! I *always* enjoy your photographs. I am looking for a chocolate recipe that freezes well. Does this one? Do any of your others? thanks!

I loved the pictures and just had to do this recipe. It seemed awesome, but unluckily, it came out TERRIBLE. I wonder if it’s just something about the ingredients. It tasted like beetroot but not in a pleasant way. It tasted just like the raw smell of it, making the cake feel somewhat salty. Plus, I had an awful time trying to mix butter with eggs and then add sugar, butter and eggs just didn’t blend together at all… I’m tempted to try again, this time beating butter with sugar and then add eggs, or melt chocolate and butter and add to the beaten eggs with sugar… any thoughts on this?
The thing I really wonder if my beets are a total different type of beet. They gave a nice moisture but the most disgusting flavor
Anyways. I will let you know if I get to successfully make this one again. I really want it to work. Thanks for the recipe!

This is the first cake I made from a recipe! And it’s great! Light, not too sweet, chocolate, my favorite beets, no baking powder (desperately looking for the recipes without it)… Maybe I will add some alcohol next time. Do you think it makes sense? what would you suggest? You see, I cannot stop changing recipes… it’s stronger than me.

Has anyone converted this into an American scale? I don’t have a scale for weighing the ingredients, but would love to make it… cups, teaspoons, anyone?
