Chocolate Cake

I recently purchased a box of Weight Watchers Chocolate Cake With Chocolate Icing snack cakes at my local Publix Super Market. I wanted to see if these low calorie chocolate snack cakes were tasty. Here is what I discovered!

Weight Watchers Chocolate Cake With Chocolate Icing is a box of six individually wrapped chocolate snack sized cakes. This product costs around three dollars. These snack cakes are loaf like shaped and have chocolate icing on top. They resemble a snack that I used to love called zingers but, they are much smaller than those. The picture of these cakes on the outside of the box looks great and very tempting.

When I tasted Weight Watchers Chocolate Cake With Chocolate Icing snack cakes, I was pleased. They are very tasty and have wonderful chocolate flavor. The icing was good but, not fantastic. These cakes were very filling even though they are very small in size. I thought the product could have been a bit more moist. Still, overall, for a low calorie snack, these chocolate cakes are pretty good.

Weight Watchers Chocolate Cake With Chocolate Icing snack cakes have eighty calories in one cake. twenty-five of these calories are from fat. Total fat grams are three, saturated fat grams are one, trans fat grams are zero. This product has five mgs of cholesterol, one hundred and ten mgs of sodium, fifteen grams of total carbs, two grams of dietary fiber, ten sugars and one gram of protein. This product has none or very little vitamin A, C, niacin, folic acid or calcium. This product provided me with two percent of my daily required thiamine and riboflavin. One cake equals one weight watchers point.
Weight Watchers Chocolate Cake With Chocolate Icing contains sugar, enriched wheat flour bleached, flour, niacin, reduced iron, thiamine mononitrate, riboflavin, folic acid, egg whites, soybean oil, glycerin, inulin, natural extract of chicory roots, cocoa processed with alkali, water, nonfat milk, egg yolk, partially hydrogenated vegetable oil, soybean oil, cottonseed oil, palm oil, soy fiber, propylene glycol mono and diesters, food starch-modified, leaving,
baking soda, sodium acid pyrophosphate, sodium aluminum phosphate, aluminum sulfate, monocalcium phosphate, cornstarch, mono and diglycerides, corn syrup, dextrose, invert sugar, corn flour, salt, sorbitan monostearate, natural and artificial flavor, caramel color, soy lecithin, potassium sorbate, polysorbate 60, xanthan gum, cellulose gum, calcium carbinate, propylene glycol, polysorbate 80, agar and wheat starch. This product does contain eggs, wheat, soy and milk. I was amazed that such a small
chocolate cake snack could possibly have this many ingredients in it!

I rate Weight Watchers Chocolate Cake With Chocolate Icing snack cakes four stars out of five stars. This product was filling and made an excellent snack.

I for one love chocolate gift sets and I know all my family and friends are happy every Christmas time when they open a gift set I have given them.

I'm always looking for inspiration and ideas every year when it comes to chocolate, last year I found the hotel chocolat website to be very helpful with my requirements.
