Steely Dan Posted July 22, 2008 Posted July 22, 2008 My brother and brother in law think of chocolate cake as a yellow cake mix with chocolate icing. IMO, this is nuts. I define chocolate cake as a chocolate cake mix and any icing, but especially chocolate icing. They both say that chocolate cake mix is also chocolate cake but the first thing they think of is yellow cake with chocolate icing. They call that the "classic" chocolate cake. What's your definition?
bartshan-83 Posted July 22, 2008 Posted July 22, 2008 They are nuts. You are correct. I think that sums it up perfectly. Do they think yellow cupcakes with chocolate icing are chocolate cupcakes?

MattyT Posted July 23, 2008 Posted July 23, 2008 Yellow cake with chocolate frosting is the nuts. However, it is not chocolate cake.
Just Jack Posted July 23, 2008 Posted July 23, 2008 Tell them to go to a bakery and order a chocolate cake and report back what they ended up with.

What's your definition? Your family is stupid! Chocolate cake is by definition....chocolate CAKE. I will add that anyone who puts anything but chocolate icing on a chocolate cake is a communist.

USMCBillsFan Posted July 24, 2008 Posted July 24, 2008 Chocolate cake is chocolate cake with chocolate icing. Technically if it is chocolate cake mix with any other icing it's still chocolate CAKE but how often to you see chocolate cake with vanilla icing? He has no logical argument and it never ceases to amaze me as to why I respond in these threads....

Steely Dan Posted July 24, 2008 Author Posted July 24, 2008 Now in an effort to save face after informing him of the poll results my brother said to ask you guys what you would call a yellow cake mix with chocolate frosting on it. My answer is a yellow cake. He says yellow is not a flavor and cake is defined by the icing. I know, my kin is really stupid. So now the question is what do you call a yellow cake with chocolate icing? BTW, my brother will stick to an argument no matter how dumb he looks when he's proven wrong and continues to argue.
