If I get time to bake in the next few weeks it's top of my list to make again and aim for perfection

The chocolate cake wasn't "chocolaty" enough so the next go 'round will be devils food with dutch processed cocoa. The coffee glaze was smashingly yummy, not changing a thing there. And the caramel frosting was entirely too sickly sweet -- made with melted Brachs caramel candies. This time I'm going to ignore my lazy streak and make a real caramel sauce for the buttercream frosting.

I would love to hear how it goes!! I downloaded an ebook on delicious coffees like starbucks.. I cant wait to play with them.
