Guest posting, love the bond behind this. Actually its been a while i havent written any guest post and am here again with an another interesting guest post i created myself to one of my new blogger buddy. Blogging is a virtual world and we cross a daily a number of virtual friends, but some have their important place in our life. Even its a virtual world, some of my blogger buddies proved that this virtual friendship may create a wonderful bond beyond blogging.


Saranya of Sarani's Kitchen, is one among those buddies aka my sister who is a wonderful person,very calm and charming gal i met personally in my life. Before few months, we dont know each other. The bridge between us is Priya of Cook Like Priya, she introduced me Saranya and met her during my weekend trip to London. We spend together a whole day at Blogger's Buzz Meet and am very happy to met her and had loads of fun with them.Saranya's blog is a beautiful place where she shares our traditional foods,beautiful bakes and many more interesting foods. Trust me,she is a wonderful baker too, you will be surprised to see her anniversary cake she baked for her marriage anniversary.It was a mindblowing black forest cake and she simply rocked.

 Am proud to do this guest post for a down to earth and affectionate blogger. I know when saranya asked me a guest post, i really want to make her a beautiful bread, brioche is one of our family favourite bread, before i'll get them often from stores. Now i competely avoiding and bake myself, so that i can mix and match the shape and flavour of the brioche as my mind goes for. This is how i prepared this double colour swirl brioche with vanilla flavoured dough and chocolate flavoured dough.Hope you all will enjoy this amazing and very attractive bread.

Divide the dough as a two equal balls. Take a ball, add the cocao powder and knead well until the cocao powder gets well mixed.



Arrange the doughs in a two bowls covered with a towel,keep aside for atleast for 2hours until they double their volume.

Knead the dough again for few minutes.

Roll the balls are two rectangles, place the cocao dough over the vanilla dough.

Roll them tightly as a log, slice the logs are 10-11medium slices and arrange them in the greased round pan.

Keep the moulds in warm place for half an hour. 

Preheat the oven to 350F.
