Question
Hello. I am a recent Le Cordon Bleu graduate who has been looking for a specific recipe for quite a while now. It is for Chocolate Lovin' Spoon cake, which is made by Sweet Street, as well as some other dessert companies. I would like a recipe which closely resembles that cake. It is a layered cake, all chocolate, with some fudgy-pudding-like substance in between layers and a ganache type frosting. Please help if you can!!! I would really appreciate it. Thank you for your time.

Answer

Hi.....
Never heard of Chocolate Lovin' Spoon Cake til you mentioned it. I did, however, go to the Sweet Street Desserts webpage and looked at it. Looks pretty simple to me. Bake off some fudgy chocolate cake layers, then whip up some chocolate pudding, and assemble it all in a cake ring and freeze. You may have to add a little gelatin to the pudding so that it has more body and stability. Once the cake has frozen, remove it from the cake ring, and ice it up with ganache. I don't really see why you would need a specific recipe.....the elements are simple and easy to put together, and even better, you could probably improve on what Sweet Street does, since they mass produce their cakes. I believe a little quality gets lost in mass production. You should just try it.....make your favorite chocolate cake recipe, make some chocolate pudding, and make some ganache. Put it all together. Bet you'll like it! Cheers.....Annie
