It’s a soup, it’s a salad, it’s a glass of vegetables wearing a summer hat.

This incredibly easy chocolate cake proves that wonderful baking doesn't need to be complicated. Made with simple pantry ingredients, cocoa powder, and a little hot coffee, it bakes into a beautifully soft, moist cake with deep chocolate flavour. Discover why oil keeps the crumb tender, how cocoa develops its flavour, and the secrets to a cake that rises evenly without becoming dry.

A little sunshine, a flaky crust, and strawberries that taste like summer finally kept its promise.
