Chocolate Cake

EverydaySweetened

Chocolate cake is a popular baked dessert made primarily from flour, sugar, cocoa powder, and fat sources like butter or oil, creating an energy-dense treat high in carbohydrates and refined sugars. Its moist crumb structure and rich flavor are enhanced through leavening agents, typically layered with buttercream or ganache frosting. Most recipes contain common allergens including gluten, dairy, and eggs, requiring consideration for restricted diets.
