Food Critic’s Review:
When I was able to try these treats, they were in the shape of hearts for Valentine’s Day. The two types of cakes that were used were regular vanilla cake and red velvet. When you take a bite into this mini cake, it’s fantastic. The chocolate on the outside and the soft, creamy cake on the inside, make for a sweet combination of deliciousness. They are bite size, fun to eat, and a perfect treat for parties or for just a regular Tuesday afternoon.
