All Rahima's friends love this cake. I have a lot of practice of making chocolate sponge so I choose it. These all the reasons due to which chocolate cake is perfect for todays contest.

4 . What do you think about this last cake season?. Have you improved your cake knowledge in these few weeks?. Are you satisfied with it?. (Must be at least 100 words.)

Before saying any thing, I would like to thank @m-fdo for organising such a great learning course that made us quite perfect to attempt all different kinds of cakes. I made perfect sponge of rich and delicious taste every time. During this season I made 6 cakes for rvery week and four cakes on demand of my family.

On 1st week of course I was quite confused how would be I made it but by following instructions I get perfect result ,it gives me confidence to make cake of next week. I tried many new recipes but I dont tried cake as I have wasted cake material 3-4 time many year before so I didn't make cakes. But now I have confidence that I can make a good presentable cakes.

All cakes that we learned during course was well explained and any beginner can make cake by following instructions. At the start of course I only make simple cupcakes but now i can make different cakes.

During course the most delicious cake for me is date cake. Its very rich and presentable. You can gift it to your loved ones too. In occasion or gatherings this cake can enhance your dinner table.

At the end I'm wishing that this course will continue to the next season so we can learn more from this cake challenge pich.

Thats all from my side and I have tried to compiled all the task given in the task. I would like to invite @roohiasif99, @uzma4882 and @sualeha for the task. Thanks for giving time to my post.
