  • How to Make a Mocha Cake
    Full Recipe: preppykitchen.com/mocha-cake/
    Coffee always accentuates the chocolatey flavor of a chocolate cake of ganache. Most of the time you don’t even notice it but today I’m pouring some extra espresso into the batter and buttercream to make an amazing mocha cake! Between each layer you’ll find a mocha buttercream, chocolate ganache and chopped chocolate covered espresso beans. This is a cake for coffee lovers so if you’re not a fan maybe try my ultimate funfetti cake?

    I can’t get enough of these videos! You are the perfect example of how someone should teach on RUclips! It’s not at all complex or cumbersome. I just ran across a video of yours a couple of days ago and I’ve been telling everyone I know who shares in my baking passion!

    Here in the Philippines, our mocha cakes are more coffee-ish than chocolatey... so the cake comes out of the oven just a bit deep beige in color and it smells like a sweet cup of mocha 😊👍🏼

    I came across this channel a couple of weeks ago when you explained the use of the baking strips and how it affects your cake and keeping it level. You used the foil and paper towels to explain it. Wow.... .I tried it and it worked perfectly. Since then I've ordered the baking strips online and now I'm an avid viewer if your channel. Sometimes I watch one recipe over and over. Your method to cake making looks so easy and I do agree when you say, you're a messy Baker. LoL Your cake creations are beautiful and stunning. Keep up the wonderful work.

Did a really strong brew of coffee for this and used my best cocoa powder. This cake has turned out wonderfully. I have raspberry flavored buttercream in between my cake layers and as my crumb coat. Doing a raspberry whipped cream outside. It's going to taste so good once done! Can't wait!

    Im a big coffee cake fan and I thought I should give a try to your recipe. Instead of making 3 layer cake, I made a two layer cake and 12 cupcakes. Everyone loved it. The only struggle I had was with ganache. Mine was way too liquidi. May be because I used the dark chocolate coins to make it. I’m not sure but overall I’m very pleased with the outcome. Love your baking tips. I ordered the baking strips from Amazon and bought powdered buttermilk. Thanks for sharing your wonderful recipe.

Cake turned out lovely for my wife's birthday. Guess what, I covered the cake with your Italian Buttercream recipe and flavoured it with salted caramel. It was all too sweet but I would think the recipe you have suggested would have been better. Thank you so much as you are so inspiring!

    Has anyone else noticed some of the discrepancies in this recipe? For example 3 cups of flour don’t weigh 342 g…? Also the printed version vs. the video version are quite different. 1/2 of a cup vs. one cup of buttermilk, a cup and a quarter versus one and a half cups of coffee, and the addition of a half a cup of water in the printed recipe. Not to mention the vanilla is totally left out in the printed recipe as well. I absolutely adore preppy kitchen and have learned so much from John. I just want to make this cake as good as it can be!
