    I am impressed with the moisture/thickness balance here. Looks like chocolate heaven

  6. ChocolateDream24

    Looks phenomenal, but how does it taste?

  7. GreenAuror

  9. peachykeenjack

  10. teankleenex

    It’s insane looking, is that an actual time? 150 hours?? I mean, I’d wait for that!

  11. lifeuncommon

    Are the dark layers fudge or brownie? They don’t look to have crumb like a cake.

    Is it as rich and decadent as it looks?

  13. TheVampyresBride

    That looks straight up sinful. Excellent job. 👌

    I really want to recreate that discontinued Trader Joe’s cake

    As a chocoholic when people say desserts are “too rich” that’s just not an experience I share, but this delicious looking cake would probably get me to say that phrase. 😂

  17. Halpmezaddy

    Oh that looks delectable! (Thats another word for delicious right?) Imma google it.

    Looks picture perfect! I’m not a chocoholic by any means yet your cake creation makes me wanna be! 🙂 Beautiful work and I’m sure your tweaks and updated timetable will reduce the overly-dramatic 150-hour investment on the original recipe! 😀

  21. TechieLadyLoki

    In this economy!!? The price of chocolate is so high rn 😭 looks amazing

  22. Aggravating_Focus692

    The what now? 👀 I want to make this but also don’t lol beautiful job!!

  23. Pahanka

    To me….the cake to frosting ratio on this is way off. It “looks” good, but even a very small slice would be like eating a piece of fudge. Nothing wrong with fudge, unless what I’m really wanting is cake

  24. Harmonic_Gear

    genuinely salivating after seeing the first pic

  27. ADeerableBeau

    This was also the first cake I ever made! It was delicious, but I’ve made much simpler chocolate cakes since then that are just as good and not as much effort.

  29. fluffylilbee

    most ridiculously decadent thing i’ve ever seen. it looks DELECTABLE

  31. fluffylilbee

    those layers are so uniform! and your cake has such a satisfying sheen to it. i hope it was worth all the effort—it certainly looks like it took a lot of time, work, and love! i’m obsessed!

    I love Alvin’s videos, they’re so peaceful ☺️ 
    I’ve used his method of infusing heavy whipping cream with coffee before (ended up with coffee butter purely by accident, but it made some incredible chocolate chip cookies!)

  36. Bluefairie

    Looks good but why does it take 6 days?
    Is it just the batter that rests for 6 days or is there multiple waits of a few days?

  40. Accomplished_Pen_544

    I did this for new years a few years ago. It was a fun experience and its good, but wouldnt make it again.

  43. AgileMastodon0909

    Was it worth it? Would you do it again?

  45. vogelvogelvogelvogel

    perfect plate for it i have to say

  46. Appropriate-Low5682

    150 hours? Try turning the heat up 

  48. skyrimspecialedition

    I’d kill entire villages for this cake

  49. Luck_TR

    I’d do terrible things to have a slice of this.
