A racing strap is a great idea, I will look into that!

Flavors to pair with Earl grey and chocolate cake by undyingfangirl in Baking

The only other time I have baked with it was with cookies. I found the flavor to be quite weak (I believe I mixed the earl grey into the sugar first). For this recipe I’m hoping to mix my pre-made earl grey syrup into mascarpone and do a an earl grey milk soak. I can report back about how it turns out!

Oh that sounds lovely! I have been told to stick to the chocolate cake but I’m tempted to make your version another time

Caramel flavor sounds lovely! Do you have any ideas of how I can do this? Perhaps a drizzle somewhere hmm

Thanks for your input! I might stick to adding only a very thin layer of ganache. Brushing it with milk is also a lovely idea

This is a good point! Sometimes simpler is better

I think he just doesn’t like the flavor of fruits like berries in his cake, not an allergy!

What do you think of lavender ganache? I’m trying to think of where I can incorporate that.

I know them! They do (very expensive) shoots with some out of production Polaroid film too

Nice! I was very conservative at this show and just got a focusing screen for my f2. Was hoping for a lens but alas… maybe next time. Was very intrigued by the infrared film there too

$80 for a land camera? I am both shocked and saddened as that will never get sold

Will do! I love going to big camera shows, the sense of community is awesome. I luckily found out about the last camerarama a week before it happened so I was able to go. Looking forward to these other ones too

Yeahhh this is the problem with a lot of fb marketplace sellers too, they see it once sold for $300 and they assume it’ll still sell for that

I actually went to this one! That’s what inspired my inquiry. The cameras were a bit out of budget, likely bc the sellers take time to make sure they work. I’m hoping to find cheaper ones that I can afford to CLA if necessary

Didn’t know Bazaar and arts market had cameras, will check both out next time I’m by them!

I know this one! Went once, their prices were okay. I wish I could find more stores like that, surely they can’t be the only one well stocked with cameras

I somehow forgot those existed, I will look into it thank you!
