Location: Any Save on Foods in Vancouver, BC

“Moist and fluffy, this black forest cake is one of my favourite cakes”, says the girl who tells everyone that she doesn’t desserts.

Not everyone would agree that the black forest cake purchased from a chained grocery store such as Save on Foods is irresistible. But taste is a very subjective thing, I just can’t help liking this black forest cake. I don’t like it just a little; I like it a lot. The texture is soft and rich, but the best part is the cream – it’s silky, buttery and yet light. It’s seldom that I would finish one piece of cake, but I would be glad to have seconds for this one.

If I could be objective for a second, then I can’t say this is the most perfect black forest cake in the world. After all, ET doesn’t care for it (and yet he managed to eat half of this 6” tower). “There isn’t any kirsch in this cake, and they really skimmed on the cherry filling”, said ET as he shoved another mouthful of cake into his mouth.

Besides this black forest cake, I also like the “High Five” from Death By Chocolate. The “High Five” is a rich five-layer chocolate cake filled with decadent chocolate ganache. Oh, and also there is the expensive rum cake that must be flown from the Caribbean.

Yes, and I still tell people that I’m not a big fan of desserts.
