Fall is dinner party season. And this year, we’re not going to spend all day creating decadent desserts because we have a killer secret up our sleeves that will thrill everyone on or invitation list.
The Dark Chocolate Bakery is the answer to our sweet-tooth prayers. Featuring haute French cuisine cakes that are made from the finest cocoa (64 – 100%) from top chocolatiers like Scharffen Berger, Valrhona and E. Guittard, this bakery has perfected the art of pastry creation.
Each mini cake measures 3” round and packs more sin per square inch than a naughty priest on his day off. The flavors are rich and the recipes represent more than two years of work to create the ultimate cakes. And the dedication shows.
The cakes are shipped frozen all over the U.S. so no matter where you live, you can enjoy the ultimate in sweet delights. We tried a sampler box, which includes six tiny cakes. The variety pack features Peanut Butter Mousse Cake, Cappuccino Bavarian, Signature Truffle, The Classic, Jack Goes German and Carrot Cake. Put out all six at your next dinner party and let your guests take a stab at each one. They’ll be thrilled with the flavors and indulgent ingredients, but most importantly, they’ll appreciate your keen attention to detail.
It’s difficult for us to choose a favorite, but if we had to, it would easily be the Peanut Butter Mousse Cake. Or the Singature Truffle. No, seriously, it’s the Cappuccino Bavarian. Oh, this is pointless. We seriously loved them all, and so did our guests. We’d like to think it’s because we lied and told them we made them all from scratch, but we know they didn’t believe us. But with cakes this delicious, nobody’s going to say anything to risk jeopardizing their position at our dining room table.
So, as we approach this holiday season, remember that sometimes, size really doesn’t matter. Put the tastiest three inches you’ve ever had in your mouth and rejoice in the decadence of The Dark Chocolate Bakery.
