National Chocolate Cake Day


Hands up if you hate chocolate cake! Well, I regret to inform you that today is not for you. It is, however, every chocolate cake lovers day, for it is National Chocolate Cake Day!

Apparently, Dr. James Baker, a man probably trying to find a cure for PMS, created chocolate cake in 1764. Does anyone else find it interesting that a Baker created one of the most popular baked goods? Fun Chocolate Cake Fact: World War II prevented Duncan Hines from introducing chocolate cake mixes. From then, General Mills and Duncan Hines have owned 48% of the cake mix market. Because of various food allergies, such as dairy and gluten, many variations have been created.
