chocolate layer cake

Stacked cocoa confection

A chocolate layer cake is a dessert consisting of multiple horizontal layers of chocolate cake separated by frosting or filling, typically chocolate or vanilla buttercream.

The layers are stacked and the whole cake is usually covered in frosting: She made a three-layer chocolate cake for his birthday.

The term distinguishes it from single-layer sheet cakes or bundt cakes.
