Bake me a wish sent me a full size cake and I didn’t get a single bite of it. We were invited to a Fourth of July party and I knew it would make a perfect treat to beat the heat and after some wonderful hamburgers. However, I had to take my kids home before the chocolate cake was cut into. My kids have an early bed time and they get GRUMPY if they are not in bed on time. Can’t really complain about having kids that WANT to go to bed if you know what I mean. So a friend of mine that ate some of the cake took a picture and wrote up what she thought about it.
Summer Said:
So here are my 2 cents:
I’m not chief and I am sure there are better people to review this cake. However, most of us aren’t chiefs or we’d be making our own cakes. But when you have to go somewhere or throw your own party sometimes baking your own cake is the LAST thing on your mind … especially as a mom! The cake was surprisingly moist for a brownie-like cake; I find brownie from scratch, from a box, ones ordered or catered in are regularly dry. The frosting was very creamy and the edge had chocolate shavings. I love chocolate but I believe sometimes there can be too much. This cake wasn’t like that at all. A modest serving wasn’t too much — not too chocolaty (although it’s all chocolate), and not too sweet.
Best of luck with your review.
~Summer
Thanks Summer for writing that for me. I know I missed out on something yummy. They tried to save me a slice but I’m in and out of town right now with my blog. I feel like I’m spinning in circles non stop. I’m having a great time right now though.
