Anniversary cake:

White cake, layer of dark chocolate, raspberry jam and raspberry cream, then more white cake, frosting, and coarse sugar.

It should be obvious that I did not make this. :)
 
My impression is that schmaltz is chicken fat rendered with onions. (I grew up in LA and had lots of Jewish friends and that's how I remember it.) Are you saying that chicken fat in general is called schmaltz?
In the my family any rendered fat that is kashrut we called schmaltz. But really it should be only chicken. I eat treif (non kosher), so I will use butter on meat sandwiches. Schmaltz herring (Yiddish) is herring caught just before spawning, when the fat (schmaltz) in the fish is at a maximum. Colloquially, schmaltz herring refers to this fish pickled in brine: see pickled herring.
 
Last nights dinner John Dory en (backing bag) papillote with spinach and oven chips. The pud was the left over strawberry mascapone sponge from last weekend. It froze beautifully. The reason I want to be buried at see is to repay creatures like the for the pleasure the give us. The fish was superb, the taste and texture put it in my top five below dover sole and turbot. The only reason it is below them is because of the ratio of meat to head and bones. This is exactly why it is my Croatian wife's number 1. She loves the heads of any sea fish.
