I have had many Epic Failures & this is one that will be added to the list. Should have just made the stinking traditional Lamington's!
From the batter not being right for the Sponge, to the coconut being desiccated to long so that it turned color, to the cake being over cooked so that it would not roll, to the chocolate having to much cream in it. I don't mind most failures, as they are usually just an appearance thing and at least can be eaten and enjoyed. This is not the case with this adventure. It simply is not tasty in its current form.
So I will let it sit uncovered till Monday, then I will cut it up and make probably one of the funkyist Bread Pudding I have ever made!
I will revisit this very soon after more research on the Sponge Cake.
