A birthday with the beloved retro classic Cold Dog was a must-have in my childhood. So who else has nostalgic feelings and childhood memories with this recipe? The Retro Food tastes great and is easy peasy to prepare. The preparation alone is a lot of fun, melt chocolate with coconut oil and cream, layer between crunchy butter cookies and cover with more chocolate. So where are the chocolate fans? Today, I present the cold dog cake yet in a modern version – Mini Triple Chocolate Cold Dog Cake. We have even in Iran a similar version of the Cold Dog we call Cake Yakhchali, which means fridge cake. The Persian version is quite different soft, and even more tender-melting on the tongue.
80’s RETRO PARTY IDEAS
Welcome to the Eighties – The guys with mullet, mustache, and perm, socks in gym cloths, headbands, and white socks toast with the ladies in neon-colored leggings with cuffs or carrot jeans with a Kir Royal, and the party starts. The dancing is more in the spotlight than the buffet, but dancing also makes you hungry at some point. Everyone dances to the soundtracks of Dirty Dancing, Saturday Night Fever, and Flashdance. And, also the beets of Madonna, Michael Jackson, Techno, Hip Hop, or the New German Wave with Nena’s 99 Luftballons. Of course, the music comes from the vinyl player. In addition to our recipes, add Capri-Sun, mixed pickles, cheese skewers with grapes, and shrimp cocktail to your buffet for a perfect retro party.
