It’s easy to imagine a chocolate coffee cake is going to taste too sweet. That’s one of the reasons we went with cocoa instead—a very special cocoa made for us by Scharffen Berger that is more complex and elegantly excellent than any we’ve ever tried.
Like a cup of well-made cocoa, this is a cake you can adore any time—especially since it's made with organic flour. It’s always a welcome table guest. Have a slice with morning coffee, with afternoon tea or with a scoop of ice cream to top off a long day before you head off to bed.

Coffee cake freezing and serving instructions.
"Hot Cocoa Cake is a favorite for many, and it is definitely a Bakehouse standard. It’s a versatile cake that can be eaten in the morning or as an afternoon snack, and also makes a great dessert after dinner. We enjoy it warm, served with lots of chocolate sauce and whipped cream. Fresh raspberries, whole or as a sauce, are also a nice addition. And of course it’s great with an actual cup of hot cocoa."
