Chocolate pastry
Description
Homemade baked goods for tea. The recipe is traditional, but sometimes you can slightly deviate from it. For example, if you don't like chocolate, simply omit the cocoa and chocolate from the recipe. You'll end up with a regular, non-chocolate cake layer and 2 types of cream.
