   FAQs

  Q: Can I make this cake in advance?
  A: Yes! In fact, it tastes even better the next day once the flavors settle in. Store covered and frost before serving if possible.

  Q: Can I freeze it?
  A: Absolutely. Wrap the unfrosted cake tightly in plastic and foil and freeze for up to 2 months. Thaw and add frosting before serving.

• Q: What is the difference between German chocolate and regular chocolate?
  A: German chocolate is a sweet, dark baking chocolate developed by Baker’s. It’s milder than bittersweet and adds a smooth, rich taste.

  Q: Can I double the frosting?
  A: YES! If you love extra gooey topping, double it and layer it thick — no judgment here.
