Summer concerts at The Paul Cluver Amphitheatre….. picnic….. Elvis Blue…..
Arrive early…
The gates open at 17:00, we usually arrive at 5 to make sure we get a good spot. Then picnic till 19:00 and a supercool summer concert from 19:00 – 21:00….
Bring your own picnic, or buy sushi or pizzas there….. buy wine and glasses from the Paul Cluver drinks stand at the concert….
The open air amphitheatre…
I’ve decided to make this very visual and ultra yummy “pressed” chocolate cake with ganache for the picnic, and added some chocolate dipped strawberries and white chocolate coated fresh cherries.
I did not “capture” the baking of the cake, but this is a REALLLLLY easy recipe, on lazy days I don’t even take out the electric mixer,…. just mix it by hand….

Flat pressed Chocolate Cake and Elvis Blue………. RECIPE CARD
Picnic prep…
“pressing” the warm cake flatter…
“Pressed” chocolate cake, once cooked, you press down onto the warm cake with a baking tray. Put 2 or 3 plates on top of the tray for extra pressure and let it cool… this will create a dense gooooey “flat” cake, nearly like a brownie that can easily be cut into blocks, +/- 4cm by 4cm…..
The FINALE……
These cake blocks are very VISUAL, you can also use fresh strawberries or fresh cherries…
