Chocolate Cake is a rich dessert baked from Wheat Flour, Sugar and an Egg. The Queen of Sauce teaches it in the first Winter, and three cakes are also the reward for the 2,500 Bundle in the Vault. Its ingredients are cheap kitchen staples, yet three villagers love it: Abigail, Evelyn and Jodi. That makes it one of the best value gifts a farm kitchen can turn out. Haley's 14-heart event also asks for a Chocolate Cake, which is one more reason to keep a cake in the fridge.
The in-game description reads: Rich and moist with a thick fudge icing.
Recipe
The recipe comes from The Queen of Sauce on the farmhouse television, on a Sunday in the first Winter. In the second Winter, that same Sunday shows Lobster Bisque instead. A farm that misses the first airing therefore relies on a Wednesday rerun, or waits for the third year, when the Sunday schedule repeats. On the show, the Queen of Sauce warns that the cake needs a lot of sugar.
Cooking Wheat Flour with Sugar and an Egg makes Chocolate Cake.
Wheat Flour and Sugar are sold all year at Pierre's General Store. Alternatively, a Mill on the farm grinds Wheat into Wheat Flour and Beets into Sugar. Eggs come from chickens kept in a Coop.
Like every dish, the cake needs the kitchen in an upgraded farmhouse or a Cookout Kit.
Cakes also come without baking. Three Chocolate Cakes are the reward for completing the 2,500 Bundle in the Vault of the Community Center. Krobus can stock them on Saturdays, the Stardrop Saloon can carry them in its rotating stock, and they can turn up in the Garbage Can outside the Saloon. A Mystery Box can contain one too.
These are the ingredients one batch needs.

Effects
Chocolate Cake is a recovery meal. It restores a good amount of energy and health, which makes it a handy treat to carry through Winter.
Qi Seasoning makes a stronger cake. A seasoned Chocolate Cake is gold quality and restores 80 percent more energy and health.
Prices
Chocolate Cake uses the same three ingredients as the Cookie, yet it sells for more. Between the two, the cake is always the better use of a spare egg. Milling the flour and sugar at home keeps the cost of each cake low. Qi Seasoning raises its sale price by half.
Gifts
Abigail, Evelyn and Jodi love Chocolate Cake. One batch of cheap ingredients can win over three villagers at once, which few other gifts can claim.
Most other villagers like it, as they like most cooked dishes. Alex, Caroline, Clint, Demetrius, the Dwarf, Elliott, Emily, George, Gus, Haley, Jas, Kent, Leah, Lewis, Linus, Marnie, Maru, Pam, Penny, Pierre, Robin, Sam, Sandy, Sebastian, Shane, Vincent and the Wizard all like it.
Harvey, Krobus, Leo and Willy dislike it. Harvey dislikes many sweet dishes, so the cake is best kept away from him.
The Cookie uses the same recipe ingredients, but villagers like it less. Leah, for example, likes Chocolate Cake but dislikes Cookies. When the choice is open, the cake is the better gift.
These villagers love receiving Chocolate Cake as a gift.

Notes
Haley's 14-heart event, called Haley's Cake-Walk, needs a Chocolate Cake. The farmer has to bring a cake to finish the event. Cakes from the Vault bundle, Krobus or the Saloon are worth keeping for this, in case the recipe is still missing.
In tailoring, Chocolate Cake in the Sewing Machine with Cloth makes the blue Party Hat. A Chocolate Cake can fill the orange dye pot in Emily and Haley's house.
A first Chocolate Cake moves the cooking achievements forward. Cook needs ten different dishes and Sous Chef twenty-five, with Gourmet Chef at every recipe.
