Small square cake boxes with handles are suitable and perfect if you wish to give someone a treat as a gift.  You can find standard ones made from biodegradable materials or even some that are made solely from recycled materials.

If you are looking for individual boxes for the tradition of giving your guests a slice or piece of you wedding cake during reception, you can also find make individual sized boxes for that purpose.  You can choose from plain white or from more expensive and beautiful designs that are perfect for your specific occasion.

Your guests will be drawn to your reception hall as the smell of warm, rich chocolate fills the air. Their mouths will water when they see the waterfall of chocolate cascading down the two-tiered fountain. It invites you guests to grab a skewer and dip into the warm chocolate fondue fountain.

Indulge your guests with the ultimate chocolate experience at your next party. The possibilities for dippers are virtually endless ranging from strawberries, bananas, marshmallows and pound cake. Both children and adults love it and the best part is they can have as much chocolate as they like. Chocolate just makes you feel good and is a pleasure to your palette and is charming to the eye. Traditionally milk or dark chocolate is used in the fountain. However, you are not just limited to the standard tradition as you can use white chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, peanut butter chips or even cheese. There are just so many options to integrate this fountain into your next social event.

These fountains are very user friendly. The heated reservoir holds up to five pounds of chocolate. It uses a pump to create the cascading waterfall of chocolate. It also cleans up easily and has parts that are dishwasher safe. You can rent or purchase these fountains at any party supply retailer. Also, many caterers offer these fountains as part of their services. When serving a chocolate fountain, be sure to have an ample amount of skewers on hand as well as plenty of napkins.

Chocolate fountains are a wonderful treat for any occasion that your guests will be sure to enjoy.  And if you choose an outside party, the right landscape lights can really create some incredible effects with the chocolate!

The best way to get this texture of cake is to find a recipe for that type. Avoid lava cakes and cakes that are titled rich and moist. You wanted to be rich and moist, but you don’t want it to be too rich and moist. If you aren’t sure, testing out different recipes will help you figure out the best to choose. If it is important to get the right texture for certain event, do not wait until that event to start baking.  You can also ask people who have made chocolate cakes that you loved what recipe they used.

If you aren’t too concerned with having cake made from scratch, one way to get the best texture of chocolate cake is to use a boxed mix. Boxed mix cake is almost foolproof. It’s as easy as mixing in a couple eggs, oil, and water. They tell you exactly how long to beat the batter with the mixer, how to grease the pan, and how long to bake it at what temperature. Follow the instructions exactly.

Use a cake tester to test its doneness. Over-baking the cake is an easy way to dry it out and make it much less delicious. Neither people who like moist dense cakes nor people who enjoy light fluffy cakes will like dried out cake.

In the end, chocolate cake is so delicious that it’s hard to mess up. Unless you completely mess up the ingredients and put things in there that you’re not supposed to, you will probably still enjoy the cake you come up with. In the meantime, practice what you can to find that perfect chocolate cake recipe.

Chocolate cake is one of the things that children are eager to prepare with their mom, dad, or grandparents. This represents a good way to get little ones interested in food preparation and kitchen skills.

It is regrettable that children today seem to think that all of the food groups are stored within boxes of fast food that goes in the microwave over. This leads to an inordinate interest in the fast food trio- fat, salt, and sugar.

Begin your cooking adventure with a trip to the kitchen and cooking equipment store. See if there is an excellent cake pan which catches the child’s interest.

You can discuss the various merits of different pans. If a bundt pan is the choice, you could describe how the cake will come out looking at the end. Perhaps the child would prefer a round pan or a rectangular one. There are many choices. This is also a great opportunity for teaching about shopping for excellent items at excellent prices.

Once home you can wash the new pan in the dishwasher so that it is ready to use.

Another outing on the great cake adventure is to the grocery store for ingredients. In the case of a young child, you may wish to simplify the ingredient list. For this first cooking introduction, a prepared cake mix is recommended. Buy a quality chocolate cake mix, eggs, applesauce and some very fine quality of chocolate to add to the cake mix.You may buy a prepared icing if you wish, or skip this step (so that the child does not come to expect cloyingly sweet desserts).

The previous steps may have taken place over several days, depending on your schedule. This will allow for the great emotional build up to the cake preparation adventure.

Your enthusiasm will help build the child’s enthusiasm for the project.

Have the child help you combine the cake mix, eggs, and mix. Instead of water specified in the recipe, try using that same amount of applesauce instead. The will make the cake moist, and will be including some fruit from the applesauce. Add a bit more water as necessary.

Crumble in your fine chocolate, or add the chocolate pieces on top of the batter before baking.

Once the cake is baked and cool, allow your child to continue beautifying it. This may include flipping over the bundt pan, or adding the frosting on top.

Be sure to take pictures along the way, so that your child can remember this event. It would be fun to place the photos in a book with descriptive commentary about the chocolate cake cooking lesson.

Unlike the conventional cakes, this cake is pretty dense due the lack of flour to make it fluffy so it is rather rich and moist too! It is also pretty easy to make and not very complicated.

These are the ingredients needed to make this cake:

230g / 8oz semisweet chocolate, broken into smaller pieces for easier melting

110g / 7 tablespoon butter, softened

5 eggs, separated

2/3 cup fine sugar (or brown sugar if you prefer)

1 tsp salt

This is what you should do to mix these ingredients and turn it into a gluten-free, rich flourless chocolate cake:

Preheat the oven to 170 degree Celsius. Grease and line a cake pan with wax paper. Then melt the chocolate and the butter over a boiling pan of water or alternatively, place it in a bowl and microwave it for about two minutes high to completely melt it.

In a mixing bowl, cream the sugar and egg yolks till fluffy. Then you fold in the chocolate mixture. In a separate bowl, use a hand mixer to whisk the egg whites and the salt until you get soft peaks. Then add about three tablespoons of sugar and continue to whisk until stiff peaks form.

You then fold the chocolate mixture into the egg whites mixture. Pour the batter into the cake pan and then bake for about 40 minutes. You will notice that this cake is a bit flat but that is expected since it is flourless. Remove from the pan for it to cool completely on a wire rack.

Sprinkle some icing sugar on top before serving this rich flourless gluten-free chocolate cake.

This is so that the chocolate will not burnt as you melt it over the boiling water. Once it is completely melted, set it aside for it to cool. Alternatively, you can also place the chocolate in a bowl and microwave it high for two minutes .

Grease a 9 inch cake pan with butter or cooking spray and line it with wax paper. Then preheat the oven to 180 degree Celsius.

In a bowl, sift the flour, baking soda and cocoa together.

In another mixing bowl, using a hand mixer to beat the sugar and butter together until it is creamy and almost white. Then you pour in the honey and mix well. Add the eggs one at a time and alternate it with a spoonful of the flour mixture.

Fold in the melted chocolate and then fold in the flour mixture. Then, you pour in the boiling water before you mix it all together to come up with a smooth, creamy batter. Pour the batter into the cake pan and bake at 180 degree Celsius for up to an hour.

The cake is done when you insert a skewer into the centre of the cake and it comes out clean. Let the cake cool completely in the pan before you invert it onto a cake plate. Now, lets get on to the honey glaze recipe:

These are the ingredients you will need for the honey glaze:

1/4 cup water

1/4 cup honey

170g bittersweet chocolate, broken in small pieces

3/4 cup icing sugar

Here’s how you make the honey glaze:

You place the honey and water in a pan and heat it up to boiling. Then you turn off the heat and add the chocolate. Let the chocolate melt and whisk the mixture. Once it is well combined, sift the icing sugar into the mixture and whisk till well combined.

Let the glaze cool completely and only put it on the cake once the honey chocolate cake is also cooled completely.

The 5 minute chocolate cake is not very pretty and hardly presentable but it makes up for it with its great taste. As long as you prepare it properly, it will definitely satisfy any of your last-minute chocolate cake cravings! And if you think you are not much of a cake baker, well, don’t worry. You only need a spoon, a mug and microwave to create this delightful single-serving of chocolate cake. Here is the recipe:

The 5-minute Chocolate Cake

These are the ingredients you will need:

4 tablespoon flour

4 tablespoon brown sugar

1 teaspoon baking powder

3 tablespoon cocoa powder

4 tablespoon low-fat milk

1 egg, lightly whisked

3 tablespoon vegetable oil

1 tablespoon natural unsweetened peanut butter (optional)

4 tablespoon mini

This is what you should do to make this easy cake:

I know the ingredients sound really daunting but really, it is basically pretty simple and easy to make. The best part about this 5 minute chocolate cake recipe is that you don’t need a lot of utensils. Just get a large ceramic mug and a spoon.

First, you pour in the flour, brown sugar, baking powder and cocoa powder into the mug. Mix it all together and then add in the whisked egg.  Mix it thoroughly and gradually pour in the milk. Stir and pour in the oil. By now, the whole mixture will be pretty sticky so add in the peanut butter and finally, the chocolate chips.

Remember to stir the mixture very well so that the ingredients are well combined and you won’t get clumps of flour or anything like that. After this, you just pop the mug into the microwave and zap it on high for a maximum of three minutes and it is done!

You can serve this cake with vanilla ice cream or with a chocolate ganache topping or even with a drizzle of chocolate sauce. However, don’t refrigerate this cake as it tends to become rubberized and hard because it is microwaved and not baked the conventional way. Best to eat it immediately!

Moist Chocolate Cake Recipe

These are the ingredients you will need:

1 1/2 cups flour, sifted

1/2 cup cocoa powder, sifted

1 tsp baking soda

1 cup brown sugar

1 tsp vanilla essence

1 tsp salt

5 tbsp vegetable oil (for healthier option, use olive oil)

1 tbsp white vinegar

1 cup water

Follow these instructions to create a perfectly moist chocolate cake:

Firstly, you will need to preheat your oven to about 350F. Then, you sift the flour into a large mixing bowl. After that, you sift in the cocoa powder and baking soda. Then, you mix in the sugar and salt. Use a large wooden spoon to stir and mix the ingredients well.

Now, using the wooden spoon, make three deep wells in the flour mixture. In the first well, pour in the oil while in the second well, you pour in the vinegar and finally, in the third well, you pour in the vanilla essence. You have the option to mix it all together now but if not, you can pour in the water, anywhere, into the whole bowl.  Use your wooden spoon to mix the wet and dry ingredients thoroughly.

To save time, you can always use a stand mixer or a hand mixer to blend all of it together until you get a smooth, creamy concoction. Make very sure that there are no lumps. Then you pour it into a two-inch deep, 9in x 9in, baking pan. You don’t need to grease the baking pan as it contains enough oil not to stick to the pan.

Then you bake the cake at 350F for about 30 minutes. You will know it is done when you test it with a skewer by inserting it in the middle of the cake. If it comes out clean, the cake is done but if it comes out with some stickiness on it, then you will need to bake the cake further.

Once it is done, remove and leave it to cool for several minutes in the pan. After that, turn it out on a wire rack to cool completely. This cake is extremely moist and rich (that’s why it is the ultimate in moist chocolate cake!) so I am sure it will turn out great as cupcakes too if you want.

• The chocolate that we eat has gone through a tedious process to get to the rich chocolaty sweetness it has.
• Cocoa is processed from cacao beans and in pure form, it is bitter to the taste.
• So, it is from cacao beans to cocoa and from the cocoa, it became chocolate.
• Dark chocolate is good for health and is known to lower blood pressure and protect the heart.
• There are many types of chocolate such as white chocolate, dark chocolate, milk chocolate, cocoa butter, baking chocolate, bittersweet chocolate and bitter chocolate.
