What can I use to moisten a chocolate cake that is already baked.  My cake is moist already it's just that since I am beginning to work with it today and it's for Friday I want to play it safe.  I was thinking about a simple syrup with a little Kahlua added to it???

AOr just plain simple syrup is fine, too. The Kahlua would be mild, but worth a shot.

I warm Hershey's Chocolate Syrup (the kind you put in milk), over the cake and work it in with my offset spatula.  Adds moistness and even more chocolate flavor.

You have a chocolate box... a full box? How big is this box? I hope it's bigger than a shoe box, otherwise my illusion of you as 'goddess of chocolate' will be shattered.

I'm impressed, you color code your chocolates.

AI ended up using simple syrup with Kahlua, but next time I will use the Hershey syrup. So obvious I don't know why I did not think of that?????
