Celebrating National Chocolate Cake Day

Celebrating National Chocolate Cake Day

Posted on January 27, 2018January 27, 2018 by jenny

Did you know that today, Saturday 27th January, is National Chocolate Cake Day? My children were so excited when I told them this and couldn’t wait to make something special to celebrate.

To celebrate Chocolate Cake Day my daughter was sent a bundle of Series 4 Num Noms and all the ingredients she needed to bake some delicious Num Noms-inspired chocolate cakes.

Have you heard of Num Noms? You can mix and match Num Noms to create sweet, scented recipes! There are 120 Num Noms in Series 4! Scented Nums are adorable, squishy characters with tons of personality. Noms are scented nail polish or flavoured, glitter lip gloss! Stack the Nums on top of the Noms to make 3,000+ sweet scented combinations.

My daughter was excited to see the new Series 4 Num Noms, and was sent a Lunch Box Assorted – Sweets Sampler and a couple of Num Noms Mystery Pack Series 4 to open. She has a few of the Lunch Box sets, they contain a variety of scented Nums and 1 mystery Num, and the packaging can be recycled into a fun lunchbox storage case. We daughter loves ticking off everything on the Collector’s Menu.

Then it was time to start making a delicious chocolate cake to eat today – Chocolate Cake Day!

She loves baking and enjoyed baking and decorating a delicious chocolate cake, inspired by her favourite Num Noms characters.

How will you be celebrating National Chocolate Cake Day today?

    Loving the cake decoration. It’s just the sort of thing my son would love to make and eat.

    I didn’t know it was a National Chocolate Day on Saturday! I love chocolate but I only have it once in a while and as a treat.. But I won’t say no to a chocolate cake when offered! Your cake looks really delicious by the way..
