Rating: Review: This cake has it all; taste, ease of preparation, and eye appeal..and you can make it ahead ! Never fails to please..I do, however, double the ingredients for the ganache topping, maybe it's gilding the lily, but it looks better with more chocolate. Thanks for this great recipe.

Rating: Review: I can't wait to make this recipe - then I will rate it - I just wanted to add that I bought my Mary Ann pan today - at Crate and Barrel! It was a great price and comes with a recipe that sounds fantastic as well!

Rating: Review: EVERY time I make this cake, people CANNOT believe it was not store bought. It is simple to make and very elegant. It has become the most requested cake I make! Buy the cake pan soon, Williams Sonoma is not carrying the pan in the stores anymore, just on the internet.

Reviewer: Linda
Rating: Review: This cake was too large for the Mary Ann cake pan and over flowed onto the bottom of the oven. Also the ganache recipe didn't begin to fill the well of the Mary Ann pan. You would need to double or triple the ganache amount. Overall, very disappointing and I wouldn't make this cake again.

Rating: Review: Equally beautiful and delicious! Thanks for calling this great cake/pan to our attention! I must say I do enjoy the ganache too!

Rating: Review: I made two of these cakes, one with fruit and mascarpone cheese, the other with lemon, but my brother doesn't like berries, so I made it with a meringue topping, it was awesome. Folks cannot believe it isn't store purchased!

Rating: Review: I wonder if you can substitute a ready made cake mix and just put the ganache in it if you are in a rush? I have made this before, and did need to triple the amount called for in the ganache. It definitely does not fill well.
