Ferrero Rocher Cake Recipe: Chocolate & Hazelnut Perfection! | Cupcake Jemma Channel

You guys asked for it - you've got it! Sally's at C&D Soho to take you through every step of making this epic Crumbs & Doilies Ferrero Rocher Cake! Hazelnut and Chocolate Sponge layers, Hazelnut Buttercream, Chocolate Ganache, Ganache Drip, Meringue Kisses... The Ferrero Cake has 'em all, and of course if you're pushed for time you can always go for one type of sponge or one type of icing, but we'd recommend setting aside a day (or two!) and giving this bad boy a go - it's soooo worth it!
We can't thank you enough for your continued support this year. It's such a pleasure for us to bring you recipes every week and when we see you guys baking along at home it fills our hearts with warm fuzzy feelings. We are super excited to bring even MORE recipes and videos in the new year.
Massive love from
Jemma, Sam, Sally and all at Crumbs and Doilies xxx

Letting cake sponge rest for a day is actually recommended as it allows time for the sponge to relax so you can make these and/or the icings on day 1.

[@carolinegumulja7125]

It looks so amazing.... Thank you to Jemma, Sally and the entire CnD team for sharing your recipes, videos and just your vibrant personalities to all of us. Your videos helped me to go through depression and anxiety a couple of years ago and it continues to be a source of joy even after I got better... Thank you for the step by step recipe, because of your guidance I learned how to bake cakes and was recently courageous enough to make a multi-layered cake.. Wishing you a happy and prosperous new year from down under! ❤️

When I was in London (visiting from the US), I ordered this for my boyfriend's birthday. It's one of the best cakes I've ever had.

After seeing the amount of effort involved in this cake, I don’t see how you are only charging £65.00 (for this size!). ♥️♥️♥️ Watched all your videos and made plenty of your recipes which have all been major successes! Love what you do and how you are so generous with your time and your recipes. Much love to you all. Hope to one day make a visit to the shop ♥️♥️

happy new year Sally, Jemma, Sam, Dave and everyone at C&D!! thank you for sharing such spectacular recipes and so much positivity, it really makes my day :) I've just started to try to recover from anorexia, and everyone's happiness and joy around bakes like this, that sound so good but yet I'm scared of because of the ingredients/calories, helps me feel more at ease just watching you. when I recover or when I'm ready to, I'd love to make one of your recipes, because I know they're amazing - I have made your cupcake recipe a long time ago with a friend, before my ed, and it was incredible. I'm still petrified of the mere thought of fat, sugar, carbs, cakes, just food and eating in general, but I used to love cakes so much and I miss that really want to be able to enjoy them again. so in the meantime, if possible could you guys maybeeee share some 'healthier' recipes? hopefully I'd be able to be more okay and less scared of cakes and bakes by trying 'healthier' recipes and slowly working my way upwards? thank you again for making my 2020 a lot brighter!
