The Franklin Hotel 1.14.12

The Franklin Hotel, 301 S James St, Rome, NY

Chocolate Peanut Butter Cake



Tiramisu


The lady fingers on the side were quite crunchy, and I usually like the entire cake to be soaked.  You can see that the coffee is soaked into about half of the cake here.  I could also tell that the creamy frosting inside was make with shortening.  I suppose I was expecting a buttercream (with butter), but I could feel the waxy shortening sticking to my tongue.  This version of tiramisu is pretty far from my version that I make.  And my version is not as good as the one I had at Bacco, which is the best tiramisu I've ever had.
