Awfully Chocolate Cake (YUMMY) November 11, 2007

August 26 was my birthday.  This birthday cake was given by my lovely darling and the cake was from Awfully Chocolate Pte Ltd(www.awfullychocolate.com). I really love their chocolate cake.  You even have to order their cake in advance just to avoid disappointment.  Their variety are limited and they sell only one type of cake. Simple dark chocolate cake between layers of dark and rich chocolate fudge.  YUMMY….. 😛

Best of all, they provide QUALITY, DARK CHOCOLATE.  I would rate them Number 1 in chocolate cakes.  Another favourite chocolate cake is Lana Cakeshop.  I have tried their chocolate cake but I still prefer Awfully Chocolate. So which one do you prefer?  Awfully Chocolate or Lana Cake?  I guessed this is up to individual.
