Comments on: Chocolate Loaf http://www.notquitenigella.com/2008/09/21/chocolate-loaf/ The slightly eccentric eating, cooking and travel adventures of a Sydney girl who loves cakes, cooking, Nigella Lawson and eating. She eats, breathes and dreams food and indeed will never get cable TV as she'd quit working and watch the Food Channel all day long.

I did warn others that it wasn't a cake so there wasn't too much disappointment! I found it was quite good with marmalade. http://aristolafood.blogspot.com/2008/12/chocolate-loaf.html I made the chocolate loaf too, and I know what you mean about the bitterness.

It looks like it wants to be cake, but then I imagine when you bite into it, it's ... bread afterall. :D It really is deceptive isn’t it?

It's so disappointing isn't it, especially when it sounds like it should work! Thanks, it was slathered with much jam :lol: Hi Angela-The idea of it sounds wonderful indeed (chocolate, nut and fruit).

In theory it should have been gorgeous. The actual result was quite revolting, especially as the chocolate bits on the top of the loaf scorched. And somehow the chocolate inside lost its sweetness, too. Very odd. Still, your loaf does look incredibly pretty. I had a similar experience once when I baked a chocolate, fruit and nut bread.

I think it would have been better with more chocolate, either inside the loaf or spread on top via way of Nutella :) Hi Cappucino-Hehe sure! :lol: Sorry for making you hungry Hi Lilia-Oh it looked like chocolate ice cream to you? I suppose the insides do a bit! Hi Bria-Hehe it’s a compulsion! I think it would have been better with more chocolate, either inside the loaf or spread on top via way of Nutella :)
