Ohhhh Cakes Mmmmm

Okay this may seem silly, but I so love cakes,  my friends who know me well will tell you that you can carry me away with cakes...lol, especially if it is Chocolate Cake Mmmmm.

So what really is the history of cake? 

The term "cake" has a long history. The word itself is of Viking origin, from the Old Norse word "kaka".

Early cakes in England were also essentially bread: the most obvious differences between a "cake" and "bread" were the round, flat shape of the cakes, and the cooking method, which turned cakes over once while cooking, while bread was left upright throughout the baking process

Okay so we know the origin of cake, we have different types of cakes, Sponge cake, Butter cake, Chocolate cake, Chiffon cakes, Coffee cakes etc.

Cakes are such a sweet dessert,and I will try my best to do justice to people like me who love cakes, so you know where to get just the best for you, your family,  friends,  Partners and loved ones alike.

My main focus will be on my favorite Chocolate Cakes.  Now I'm sure you all know Chocolate is good for the body, imagine combining it in cake form and my you are in Heaven.

Chocolate cakes are butter cakes, sponge cakes, or other cakes flavored with melted chocolate or cocoa powder.German chocolate cake is a variety of chocolate cake.

Now there are two chocolate cakes I've had that literally were just the Bomb.
The first was from Goodies Supermarket and the other from Helado delica. Trust me if you have any of them and you are a lover of chocolate,  you won't want to eat any form of cake again.

I remember growing up and Nigerian Cake makers were just into the normal dry and hard cakes, but when I knew things were getting better in the Nigeria Cake world was when I had a cake from Lovestruck..  O my, these guys are something else,  imagine a guy baking with so many flavors and designs, it was really a nice experience and once I discovered them and told my Aunt, she never looked back. All her cakes were from them and fast forward to almost 10 years now, they are doing pretty well for themselves. 

So why don't you just feast your eyes on these cakes and I will be nice and give you links as to where to get these cakes from.
