Decadent chocolate layer cake: A sweet treat made by UFCW members

Toronto – April 28, 2025 – There’s something truly special about a rich, chocolatey dessert that brings joy to every occasion. Whether it's a birthday, a dinner party, or just a weekend treat, a layered chocolate cake never goes out of style. Even better? You can elevate this timeless dessert using high-quality, locally made ingredients crafted by UFCW Canada members—workers who help make life sweeter, one bite at a time.

Start your cake with a solid foundation using Robin Hood Flour and Rogers Foods sugar—both pantry staples made with care by UFCW members. For a moist and tender crumb, rely on Carnation Evaporated Milk and Burnbrae Farms Eggs, ensuring a rich texture that holds up to even the most indulgent fillings and frostings.

Chocolate is, of course, the star here. Use Cadbury Dairy Milk Bars or Caramilk Chocolate Bars, both lovingly crafted by UFCW workers, to create a smooth, decadent ganache. Melted down and folded into your batter and frosting, these delicious and widely available chocolates provide a luscious flavor you simply can't replicate.

Finish it all off with a glossy ganache glaze and a few decorative touches like Brookside Chocolate or a dusting of cocoa powder made with pride in Canadian kitchens.

And what’s cake without a scoop of ice cream on the side? Pair your dessert with a creamy serving of Earnest Ice Cream, crafted with care by UFCW members. Whether you go for classic vanilla or something more adventurous like salted caramel, these Canadian-made frozen treats are the perfect complement to your chocolate cake. Smooth, rich, and made with locally sourced ingredients, they bring the perfect chill to every sweet bite.
