My chocolate cake in Portland last week looked like a volcano until I stuck a straw in it.

I was rushing the ganache and it set way too fast, so I poked a hole in the center with a straw and poured the rest in to save the layers, has anyone else fixed a cake disaster that way?

That's not fixing a cake, that's performing emergency surgery.

But what if the cake is really worth saving?

Exactly. Some cakes are just too far gone. You end up spending more time and money than if you just started over. It stops being fun and starts being a chore. At a certain point, you have to call it.
