Chocolate Layer Cake Yankee Candle Review





Fragrance: Chocolate Layer Cake
Manufacturer: Yankee Candle
Candles Sampled: votive.

     Chocolate scents are nothing new to Yankee Candle. They’ve done it a few times with various scents like Whoopie Pie, Chocolate Truffle, etc. But when I saw this at the Cheektowaga, New York location, I absolutely had to give it a try. So, I bought a votive of it (and their new Berrylcious scent).
     The first thing to know about this candle is that the scent is extremely authentic. It really does smell like what you’d expect chocolate layer cake to smell like. I’m very lucky because I can enjoy foodie scents without ever actually getting a food craving. So, you don’t have to worry about it smelling fake or like chemically-enhanced junk. It smells like the real thing.
     Second, the throw is excellent. And this is just from the votive candle, not the jar or the tart, which is typically stronger. Let the wax pool just a little bit and you’ll quickly fill the room with its scent. I’ve not used other forms for this scent yet, but I won’t rule it out. I would imagine the jars and tarts will be even stronger.
