Your most memorable FAILURE at cooking (v.2)

AAAh... back in French class, I remember we had a food project for a chapter.

So I decided to make a lovely white chocolate cake for the first time. I had the recipe book, all you had to do was dump in some ingredients and bake it. How hard could it be? When buying the ingredients I skipped the wussy-cake-mix and came home confident I WILL bake that cake.

Everything was going fine I guess, until that glazing. Read the directions wrong, poured it the wrong way, and it was waaaay to liquidy. I dumped some on the cake. It dripped and wouldn't stay on, it wasn't thick enough. I tried to put some more and scrape it to the top of the cake. But no, the glazing dripped down into a puddly mess.

So I decided to add some honey to thicken it up. I think I dumped half the bottle in? Still not thick enough, more butter! Still not thick enough, some more honey! In the end, I ran out of honey and my small container of butter. It was still dripping and liquidy. AAAAAAAHHH, milk chocolate, make it thick! Nope, didn't work. I just dumped it over the cake and left it overnight.

Needless to say, the next day it was just a nasty brown way-too-sweet puddle of glazing in a cake-baking pan. No one touched it in French class and I dumped it.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
