My (Current) Favorite Chocolate Cake

I have been looking for that familiar chocolate cake, the one we've been accustomed to when we were kids... long before the flourless cakes, sugarfrees, buttercreams, and what have you's emerged on the market.

I have long been in the hunt for that perfect frosting- white, sugary, grainy, lightly whipped, frosting. I have no idea what it is. But I do know how it looks like. I've been scouring almost every bakeshop and food sites- but I have not yet seen one like it. Until ...

One day, I was at the grocery. I went to the bread aisle to get us some wheat bread. Then, out of the corner of my eye... a little brown thing with a thick, white stripe in the middle, packed tight in clear plastic beckoned to me.


I ignored it, and went on my business for the day. The week after, I saw it again. It was only on the third week after I first saw it when I decided to grab one, and that was... only a few seconds away from going to the cashier. A last minute thing.



As soon as I got home, I opened it...and mmmmm. I found it! The chocolate cake was a regular chocolate cake. A little heavier, and moister than chiffon. In the middle, was the very frosting I was looking for!! White, sugary, grainy, sticky-to-the-lips kind of frosting.

And for only P23.50 per piece... it's just perfect! :)

Hay, and the search ends.
