Bake Off 4.5: Guinness Cake by Flan Man 3000


Finally somebody introduced alcohol into this competition - yes, we really had two full previous bake off rounds without anyone baking with the magical elixir.

Not only did this scrumptious cake sound good to everyone's ears, it also delivered on the taste front and quite likely opened the door to future alcoholic treats.

We aren't sure yet, if this is a blessing or a curse on a Monday morning, but there are surely worse ways to start the week.

And here is what the experts said:

An interesting and original effort

Bearing in mind the catalogue of errors that occurred, it was amazing that a cake was actually produced!
A lot nicer than it was build up to be, Very original as well - never thought stout and cake could mix!
Love the icing.
Appreciate the risk taking and enjoyed the first entry of alcohol infused baking good in this competition to date.
Mixing my two life's passions: Chocolate and beer? You are a smart man, Flan Man 3000!
