  1. Buono Moussa & Marion. Moussa your Italian was perfect in this video. Cake looked amazing in the end. Well worth the effort. Just like making beer but with a few extra ingredients 😂 Thanks for taking the time to show us the process. Appreciated.

  2. Whenever you see a gifted person you only see the public glories, never the private sacrifices to reach them.
    Your enthusiasm will inspire others to move forward with actions that bring rewarding achievements. Thank you.

    Ecclesiastes 3:13
