Chocolate cake is divine. There's just no other way of putting it. And chocolate cake from Magleby's is confection heaven!
A lot of chocolate cakes have a bitter or acrid flavor. Or they may be too sweet (German chocolate cakes are an exception). Magleby's cake is fudgy and has the perfect amount of frosting.
Too much frosting is another downside to sub-par cakes, especially layer cakes. There's nothing like cutting into a two- or three-layer cake and finding out there's more frosting than cake inside. I'd compare it to a plate laden with gravy for a dollop of mashed potatoes.
Since chocolate cake is divine and divinity points towards heaven, today's song is "Cheek to Cheek" sung by Frank Sinatra. The opening lyrics, after all, are, "Heaven, I'm in heaven...."
