This cake here is also known as the Etiole if you buy the larger birthday cake-sized version. The top is dusted in cocoa powder and topped with chocolate curls. The first thing I do when I get a cake is smell it. Taste is smell, all flavour from a chocolate cake is detected by the nose. This is why professional wine tasters always smell first before sipping. On the other hand, the tongue gathers textural information, while the ears aid in cruch or squishiness detection.
Sweet Secrets is a familiar family brand. They've been around for a long time and I fondly remember eating their mango cake as a kid. They produce a number of chocolate cakes, including one of my favourites (the concorde), and it's inevitable that I'll review all their chocolate cakes on this blog.
Actually, I dont think wrapping cakes in acetate plastic is the 'in' thing these days. Its asthetically unappealing and is sort of a hastle to remove for the customer. Better to build a structurally sound cake without the acetate wrap.
Naturally, the first bit I reached out for was chocolate curls on top. I was kind of dismayed by the unbelievable flavour molecules that reached my nose. It tasted like coca cola!! I wonder what kind of chocolate they were using! Then I went on the mousse, and found it light and smooth, but somewhat witheld in terms of chocolate intensity. There were liquid soaked sponge layers in the middle but these weren't very noticable as they had almost identical texture to the mousse. If I hadn't looked, I wouldn't have known about the sponge. What exactly was the chocolate sponge infused with? Can't tell.

Well, if you love mousse, this would be your kind of cake, since its mousse all the way. I personally think its texturally monotonous. This cake would have farred better if they cut the sugar and up the chocolate intensity.
This cake costs $2.50, the equivalent of 1 canteen meal in school. Will you skip 1 meal at school in exchange for a slice of the Etiole?
