Celebrate With The Best Gift - The Very Best Chocolate Cake
Americans are in love with chocolate cake! Research shows that it’s a favorite for most of us - in fact, chocolate cake is more than seven times as popular as white cake.
Chocolate’s roots come from
the Americas, where it was first
used as a drink, often flavored with
chili pepper. Chocolate drinks
became known to Europeans in
the early 1500s, who flavored
chocolate drinks with spices such
as cinnamon and nutmeg. But
while chocolate has been popular
for centuries, chocolate cake only
became popular in the U.S. in the
middle of the 20th century, when high-quality baking chocolate became more widely available to American home bakers.
This year, Nestlé is celebrating its 150th anniversary. Nestlé’s products include everything from coffee and prepared meals to sparkling water and pet food, but the company is probably best known for its chocolate products and confections, such as Nestle® Toll House® Dark Chocolate Morsels, Nesquik® and Butterfinger®. So to mark this special occasion, Nestlé is offering its “best” gift - its recipe for the Very Best Chocolate Cake.
“Chocolate cake is great for any celebration, whether a birthday, anniversary, holiday or a spontaneous gathering with loved ones,” said Jenny Harper, manager of Nestlé’s Baking Test Kitchens. “This chocolate cake recipe is easy to make with common ingredients, and it’s so delightfully delicious it is perfect to make any occasion more special. We couldn’t think of a better gift to share for our 150th birthday!”
