The birthday boy has asked me for chocolate cake with cream cheese icing for his 18th cake (we work together.) I have never tried this combo, has anyone ever used it and if so was it good? any input would be greatly appreciated. TIA

it does in my world. If thats what the birthday boy wants that is what he should have.

That is my sisters favorite combination! Usually her request every year! They go great together!

absolutely!!!! my family loves it!

Wonderful - thanks ladies! I've only ever made it with carrot or banana cake. He's so cute, he's messaged me from a post about my cakes on facebook. "Let's use the cream cheese part - you can keep the banana!"

It's very popular combination, I love it myself!

It works in my house! Yum.

Yes, it's commonly served in the form of red velvet cake if it has cream cheese icing.

It is so yummy with fresh strawberries! What I really like to make is chocolate cake, a layer of chocolate cream cheese frosting and then chopped fresh strawberries - so good. Good luck with your cake!

Oh yes, choco cake, raspberry b'cream filling and cr ch icing is a wonderful combination!
