Favorite Cakes

There are many different kinds of cakes one of my favorite would be my grandma’s coffee cake. Coffee cake was not invented it was evolved in ancient honey cakes to simple French galetts.Moving on another favorite cake would have to be chocolate cake it was invented in 1500 B.C.-400 B.C.When chocolate cake first came to Europe it was just a plain old chocolate cake. Then the Europeans got involved and they made the icing, pudding, and the baked goods to embrace the chocolaty flavor. The next cake that we are going to talk about is cherry cheese cake or another name for it is cheery creamed pie. Cherry cheesecake is made by taking graham crackers for the crust, a package of cream cheese, sweetened condensed milk, lemon juice, vanilla extract, lastly cherry pie filling. The last cake that we will be talking about is called a Red Velvet cake. This cake is used for occasisions like Valentine’s Day because of the red in the cake to symbolize love.  There are many ways to use red velvet like when baking a cake or also when you are baking cookies. All these cakes that I have talked to you about today are all a good way to bring the family to the table.

Famous cakes

Why is chocolate cake the favorite cake? Why isn’t vanilla the hot shot? In my point of view it is chocolate is because it makes you energetic and pumped up for the day. It also gives your taste buds a good taste and makes you want to eat more. The first chocolate cake was made by Dr. James Baker in 1764. That is when they realized that they had the eggs milk sugar and flour that were needed to make chocolate cake. When the chocolate cakes were first invented they were just old plain and simple chocolate cakes with nothing else in them or on them to make them look fun. The season of winter chocolate cakes are normally made. Why you may ask? It is because chocolate brings a family together. Because of the smell that makes you feel inviting and also makes you feel like the world are all in the chocolate cakes hands. Nothing feels better then to take the bite of the warm and moist never ending chocolate cake. A simple chocolate cake can go a long way it can go from a plain boring chocolate cake to a double layered strawberry chocolate cake. How a few little touches can go a long way?By simpily just adding strawberries or whip cream or anything that makes your tastebuds feel good.
