Quite possibly, the most beautiful Black Forest Gateaux ever.....

I was just sent this link from blogger Stephanie of Desserts for Breakfast.

Stephanie made this culinary masterpiece herself and every time I look at it I am A; bewildered and amazed, B; I can't help but think of Tim Burton (I adore him and, to me at least, it SO looks like a cake the would have ordered or made himself (if he's into baking) for the wrap party of 'A Nightmare before Christmas') and C: I am now totally dubious about attempting my own BFG next week... How can one compete?!?

But I think it is simply stunning! More-so I wish Stephanie lived a little closer to me in Sydney so I could get her to make me another one to stare out for hours in person before finally gobbling the whole creation up.
