I don’t think I’ve ever eaten a better chocolate cake than a Woolies mud cake. No boutique Surry Hills bakery with their opulent flourless offerings can hold a candle to the moist, supple depth of a Woolies choc-mud. Which is why I have nothing but the utmost respect for this woman who crafted the ultimate, boho-chic wedding cake out of 11 choc mudders.

Silvina Werner, a victorian mum, turned the humble chocolate cake into a three-tiered pièce de résistance. The mum took to the Facebook group Woolies/Coles Mudcake Hacks to share her masterpiece.

“Wedding cake I made for a friend,” she explained in the post, “11 choc mud cakes from Woolies in total. Bottom tier consists of 4 cakes each made out of 2 mud cakes, second tier is 2 mud cakes and for the third tier I cut a mud cake into 2 smaller ones. Betty Crocker buttercream in between layers and covering. Fresh flowers supplied by the bride. Proud of my efforts.”

Betty bloody Crocker icing, fucken oath. You should be proud of your efforts Silvina, you stunner.

In other Woolies chocolate mudcake news, the supermarket recently revealed a new flavour of the beloved treat, adding choc-orange to the repertoire. To be honest we’re absolutely revolted; chocolate and orange is a deadshit combination.

Last month, we conducted a very serious, extremely official survey, to determine which Aussie supermarket was superior — Woolworths or Coles. Find out the results now.
