If you’re a cake lover, then congratulations—you’ve just stumbled upon the ultimate list of cakes that will make your sweet tooth do a happy dance! My book Chocolate is filled with delicious, drool-worthy recipes, but if you’re wondering where to start, let me guide you through ten cakes that are absolute must-tries. From the dreamiest cheesecakes to fudgy delights that will transport you to dessert heaven, this list is here to tempt, tease, and totally win over your taste buds. So grab a fork (or just dig in with your hands, no judgment here), and let’s dive into this world of chocolatey bliss!

(P.S. You can buy a copy of Chocolate here and explore even more amazing recipes!)

1. Black Forest Cheesecake

Think Black Forest cake and cheesecake had a baby, and you’ve got this masterpiece. A rich, velvety cheesecake sits between layers of chocolate sponge, oozing with tart cherry compote and topped with whipped cream and a snowfall of chocolate shavings. It’s like a German fairy tale on a plate—minus the witches and wolves.

2. Mocha Mousse Cake

This cake is what happens when coffee and chocolate join forces for the greater good. A light, airy mocha mousse sits atop a delicate chocolate sponge, giving you that perfect balance of bitter espresso and rich cocoa. Finished with a glossy glaze and chocolate curls, this cake is so fancy, you might just want to take a moment to admire it before devouring it in five seconds flat.

3. Pistachio Chequered Cake

Because who doesn’t love a surprise when they cut into a cake? This showstopper features alternating squares of chocolate and pistachio sponge, giving it a mesmerizing checkerboard pattern when sliced. Covered in silky ganache, it’s the perfect cake to wow guests—or just to feel like a baking pro.

4. Ferrero Rocher Cake

If you love Ferrero Rocher chocolates, this cake is your new best friend. Layers of decadent chocolate sponge, hazelnut praline cream, and crunchy wafer pieces come together in one heavenly dessert. Topped with crushed hazelnuts and looks like a whole Ferrero Rocher, this cake screams indulgence in the most sophisticated way possible.

5. Hot Fudge Cake

Brace yourself for the ultimate comfort dessert. This cake bakes up with a magic trick—it creates its own gooey, molten fudge sauce while in the oven. Serve it warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, and prepare for an out-of-body experience where all your problems suddenly seem insignificant.

6. Triple Chocolate Cake

Why settle for one type of chocolate when you can have three? This cake layers dark chocolate sponge, milk chocolate mousse, and a silky white chocolate ganache for the ultimate trifecta of indulgence. If chocolate could be royalty, this would be its reigning queen.

7. Biscoff Lava Cake

Move over, traditional lava cake—this one is taking over! The deep cocoa flavors perfectly complement the molten, spiced Biscoff spread that oozes from the center. Every spoonful is pure magic, best served with a sprinkle of powdered sugar or a dollop of cinnamon ice cream. You’ll be licking your plate, and we fully support that.

8. Chocolate Basque Cheesecake

A cheesecake with an identity crisis—in the best way possible. This burnt Basque-style beauty has a rich, caramelized top that crackles ever so slightly before giving way to a creamy, custardy, chocolate-infused center. It’s rustic, it’s dramatic, and it’s ridiculously delicious.

9. Matilda’s Chocolate Cake

Inspired by the famous cake scene from Matilda, this fudgy, ultra-moist cake is here to fulfill all your childhood chocolate cake fantasies. It’s rich, it’s gooey, and it’s everything you imagined while watching Bruce Bogtrotter devour it on screen. Just try not to eat it all in one sitting… or do. We won’t judge.

10. Bourbon Biscuit Cheesecake

This cheesecake is a nostalgic treat for every Bourbon biscuit lover! A rich chocolate cheesecake infused with the deep cocoa flavor of Bourbon biscuits, sitting on a crunchy biscuit base and topped with a luscious chocolate glaze. Every bite is a throwback to childhood snack time—only better, because now it’s cake! Pure, unadulterated magic. Espresso-soaked sponge, creamy mascarpone, and a generous dusting of cocoa come together to form a dessert that’s part cake, part tiramisu, and 100% delightful.

  

Which One Will You Bake First?

Each of these cakes is a star in its own right—whether you’re in the mood for something nostalgic, something dramatic, or just a full-on chocolate overload. The only problem? Choosing which one to bake first! So why not let fate decide—close your eyes, point at the list, and let your next baking adventure begin. Whichever one you choose, rest assured you’re about to experience chocolate in its most glorious form.
