Cake and cake and cake!!!

This here is a monster of a chocolate (vegan) birthday cake.   There's a layer of ganache and red raspberry jam in the center, but it's basically chocolate.  Whole wheat flour to support it (2c ww/ 2c apf) - there's basically a cup of cocoa and a bag of chocolate chips melted with hot coffee).  I can't eat it.  The caffeine makes me crazy.  
You'll see (look carefully) that the sides are held together with frosting - (1/4 c earth balance, 3/4 cup soymilk, until melted, then stir in a bag of chocolate chips) - the cake crumbled coming out of the pans.  I should have used bigger pans, but something in the whole wheat flour/brown rice syrup thing went wrong.  Not sure what.  Guess I'll have to bake it again!
