Tescos Chocolate Birthday Cake

anyone ever tried the chocolate birthday cake they have in Tescos. It comes in 2 different sizes I think...round and a rectangle shape? in a purple box
need a cake for a birthday but dont wana spend a fortune on it..will be more for blowing out the candles. The b-day boy aint really a cake lover!

The tesco choco cake in the rectangular box is soooooo good. So cheap and its lovely and moist and not heavy...YUM YUM YUM. Also the rectangle one that is sponge with vanilla icing and dolly mixture on it is devine....DROOOOL!!

IMHO M&S chocolate cake is tastier...

The caterpillar one is nice as well think it was a Tesco one.

That Tesco cake is delicious. I've brought it to a couple of parties when it merited it. Or when I really wanted cake.

I'd second M&S, their cakes have really improved lately.

Haaa consider myself an expert on the rectangle choco and vanilla cakes from tesco and M+S as we always get them in work for ppls bdays so have them quite often. I found that the Tesco ones better personally as they are a lighter cake. Choco cake can be quite heavy and the tesco one is lovely and light. But if u rather a richer, more dense cake then the M+S are the biz......Thou id eat any of them willingly to be honest....YUMMY!!!!

Managed to save a slice..going to have a cuppa tea with it now...might ease my hangover!!

Shop bought cakes can be tasty, but so small considering what you pay for them.
Cant beat home-made!
