Days 25 and 26: Caramel Walnut Cake

This cake is called Triomphe Aux Noix or Walnut Cake.  Not so very exciting to look at, but it is pretty good if you like caramel.  The cake, the mousse, the imbibing syrup, and even the candied walnuts are all flavored with caramel, but it's not a rich cake, it's very light and creamy.  The cakey bottom of this cake is imbibed with a caramel flavored simple syrup, layered with caramel sauce mixture, a caramel mousse, and a caramel glaze.  For decoration, the final touch on this cake is the chopped walnuts around the top edge.



Until next time Au Revoir and Bon Appetit!
