3. Definition
Chocolate cake has no literal meaning but chocolate represents love and
happiness. I display that type of love and happiness around others I care
about. When they’re down, I’m down. When they’re up, I’m up, that’s just how
I operate.

4. Personal Connections
My Auntie was an excellent baker and her typical dessert dish was
Chocolate Cake. She loved to assemble it for me and the rest of my
family. As a kid, I thought she was the best baker in the world. Times have
changed, she passed away due to uncertain circumstances but her recipe
will live on forever.

5. Personal Connections
The dish was chosen because of the amount of excitement it brought to
me. I was so thrilled to devour the piece of cake that was waiting for me
at the table. That was my family members favorite dessert dish. Also, it
was tasted like heaven(I don’t know what heaven looks like). In. addition,
we had a lot of family in the house so small pieces were a requirement for
everybody. Most of the time, there were debates and arguments over the
biggest piece of the cake.

6. Connection
Chocolate Cake brought a unconditional love to everyone in my family. There
were family reunions where cake was their. Mostly, it was a great time to be
alive. I loved enjoying it with my family and playing activities with them.

7. Chocolate cake was also the culture of my family. We had that at every family
function created for us. When my aunt died, I stayed connected with her
through cake. To me, that was the best thing ever for me.

8. Connection
In the future, I want to be able to obtain a degree and be a baker baking
chocolate cakes and other fantastic desserts.

9. History
In 1764, Chocolate was created by a man by the name of Dr. James Baker. Chocolate was
created from a Theobroma Cacao Tree. Chocolate Cake wasn’t created until 1879, by a man
named Rodolphe Lindt. He left his machines running all weekend to come back one day to
discover chocolate cake.

smaller use of sugar and cocoa. In the 1980’s chocolate cakes were very
popular. Cakes included flavors like tea, curry, red pepper, passionfruit and
champagne.

keep cake in the fridge after done eating to keep it moist and
fresh. Always serve cake at room temperature first, so anything
does not get messed up.
