Description
A still life imaeg of a chocolate lava cake garnished with fresh strawberries. I used textures and digital effects to give the image the look of a painting. I love how it looks like the chocolate exploded all over the image. This would be great in your kitchen, dining room, or a bakery even.
Molten chocolate cake is a popular dessert that combines the elements of a flourless chocolate cake (sometimes called a chocolate decadence cake) and a souffl�. Some other names used are chocolate fondant, chocolate moelleux and chocolate lava cake. The United States-based chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten claims to have invented molten chocolate cake in New York City in 1987, but the French chef and chocolatier Jacques Torres has disputed that claim, arguing that such a dish already existed in France. According to Vongerichten, he pulled a chocolate sponge cake from the oven before it was done and found that the center was still runny, but was warm and had both a good taste and a good texture. Regardless of who invented the dish, Vongerichten has been credited with popularizing it in the United States, and it became almost a de rigueur inclusion on high-end restaurant dessert menus.
