Chocolate Layer Cake

Chocolate Layer Cake

EverydaySweetened

Chocolate layer cake is a classic celebratory dessert consisting of multiple stacked cake layers alternated with sweet frosting, typically chocolate buttercream or ganache. This indulgent baked good derives its rich flavor from cocoa powder or melted chocolate in the batter, while its high calorie density stems from refined flour, sugar, and butter or oil. Though variations exist in frosting types and decorations, all versions are characterized by concentrated sugars and carbohydrates, making portion control essential for nutritional tracking.
