Chocolate Cake — Three Layers, Two Sizes
Buttermilk sponge, chocolate buttercream, dark ganache between every layer.
This is the cake that has to be good, because it's the one everybody has a version of in their head. Ours is built the long way: a buttermilk chocolate sponge, chocolate buttercream, and a proper dark ganache between every single layer.
How it's built
- Three layers of chocolate buttermilk cake — buttermilk is what keeps a chocolate sponge tender, and it's the difference between a cake that's still good on day two and one that isn't
- Chocolate buttercream — made in our kitchen, and the richest frosting we make
- Dark chocolate ganache drip
- Finished with chocolate chips — simply, on top, for texture
- Made to order, for your date — nothing sitting in a fridge waiting for a buyer
Two sizes
- 6 inch — $98 · feeds 6 to 8 ($12.25–$16.33 a head)
- 8 inch — $155 · feeds 10 to 15 ($10.33–$15.50 a head)
The 8-inch is the better value per person — 58% more money for 67 to 88% more cake. Around ten people, size up.
Why it's worth the price
- Three layers, filled and stacked by hand. Levelled, frosted individually — an hour of somebody's afternoon, not a mix poured into a tin.
- Real ganache, not a chocolate buttercream stand-in. Ganache is cream and chocolate, which is the most expensive combination in the bakery, and it's why this cake tastes richer than the ones that skip it.
- Buttermilk sponge. The bubbles in buttermilk react with the baking soda to give a fine, tender crumb — that's what stops a chocolate cake going dense.
- Chocolate buttercream is our most expensive frosting to make, and it's the one on this cake.
- It holds and it travels. Ganache sets firm, so this cake boxes and transports better than anything cream-based.
