Choc-A-Lot Cake

What is it?

Served as a single slice at room temperature, this dessert is built as a dense chocolate cake with a brownie-like crumb. It leans on cocoa rather than frosting, so the flavour stays centred on the cake itself, with a soft, moist texture and a firm edge where it’s been cut. On Nando’s dessert menu, it sits alongside lighter items like ice cream rather than the grilled mains and sides. Compared with a typical sponge cake, it’s less airy and more compact, closer to a fudgy traybake in structure.
