Who Makes The Best Chocolate Cake?

- Опубликовано: 7 дек 2022
- 12 slices of chocolate cake later and we’re SHOCKED at which chain restaurant served up the most impressive dessert of the group!
With most popular casual dining chains like Olive Garden, Longhorn, and Applebee’s offering their own unique take on chocolate cake, we made stops at eight of the most recognizable restaurant chains nearest to us to determine which place is doing it BEST for our fellow chocoholics.
From long-standing fan favorites like Chili’s Molten Chocolate Cake to towering spectacles of richness and decadence like The Great Wall of Chocolate from PF Chang’s, we ate and ranked each chocolate cake according to our personal taste to create the ultimate guide on which chains’ chocolate cake cannot be skipped to complete your meal!
Whether you came for insight and find this tier-list useful or just popped in to see some epic slices of cake, it would mean the world if you gave the video a Like and Subscribe if you’re new to our eating show!
Much love,

FAQ’s:
Most of your questions were probably answered in this video:
• The Longest Mukbang Ch...
Extremely insightful video into how it works:
• How Matt Stonie stays ...
Q: How do you not gain weight?
A: Endurance sports (primarily running, cycling and some resistance training) and extreme discipline & sacrifice with our daily diets is how we manage not to gain weight. We eat mostly vegetables, fruits, some whole grains and low fat dairy on the days outside these videos. The calories consumed in a food challenge or mukbang are the only calories consumed that day and sometimes the day following as well seeing our appetites are typically shot from so much food and the thought of eating is very off-putting. Two days out we are back to large amounts of vegetables and increase to maintenance from there. We also often eat most of our days calories in a smaller eating window (we frequently bounce between intermittent fasting & OMAD diet as it just seems to work with our lifestyles and eating preferences). Anyone with a larger than normal stomach capacity like us, the drive to push through the discomfort of a challenge like this, and a basic understanding of energy balance (calories in vs calories out) can do it with enough disciple and intention (not that we recommend it).
Also worth mentioning is that we do not exercise to burn the calories consumed in a video but rather we are able to consume higher calorie diets due to our participation in endurance activities and said discipline with our daily diets.
Q: Can you make a “What I eat in a day” / fitness focused video?
A: While we’re sure that type of video will eventually make its way out there, this is not a health and fitness channel and we intend to primarily focus on indulgent food entertainment. We’re still in the very early stages of establishing ourselves within this genre and we’re constantly experimenting and trying to improve upon our style to make our channel a unique experience. Food is our passion while fitness is our discipline so, while we currently only have the availability to produce one quality piece of content a week, fun food-centered videos is where we’ll be focusing our attention (and trust us, it’s more fun for all of us this way). That’s not to say it will never happen, but it’s not a top priority for us. - Развлечения
I am just surprised that you guys only have 31k subscribers, you should have at least have 10 times more with all the amazing content you provide every week.
Thanks so much for the love! We’re glad you’re enjoying the content 🙏
Agreed. They’re awesome
They will grow
From what I've noticed from what other content creators have mentioned, more likes, subscriptions and comments affect the RUclips algorithm for recommending videos. I 100% agree with you. The content here is awesome.
I had the longhorn stampede cake the other day. It was ridiculously good. You guys were not exaggerating
You’re the first person to comment that they’ve had it! We need to raise awareness about that thing 😅
I am stunned at the quantity consumed without losing your taste buds and becoming 'numb' to chocolate. How do you guys do it--absolutely impressive!!
As someone that lives alone its so comforting eating (with) while watching you guys eat, and such creative content as always
Ey! We’re so glad to keep you company 😁 Thanks for hangin’ with us and thanks for the love!
I do the same thing!
It makes me feel less 'alone' and I can always agree and understand the commentary to most of the featured items!
Sad
Now you can relate to what was created for the many “alone” people in Korea who are living alone and eat alone. It’s HUGE on RUclips and it’s called MUKBANG.
@@jem5252 wow this makes so much sense! 😲
Guys, the effort and dedication you put into these videos is really amazing, we really appreciate the quality and your editing skills 10/10. You guys should do a Q&A while eating your favorite items of this year!
Really appreciate the love! We’re launching our patreon soon where we would probably do Q&A style things from time to time.
The main channel will be dedicated to the objective based content we’ve been trying to transition into the last few months and the unedited, and more personal stuff will probably be over there 🙏
The first time I had the Chocolate Stampede was in high school and it was without a doubt the best chocolate cake I've had from a large chain restuarant. It gives you everything you could want from a chocolate dessert but can be really heavy because of that.
Chocolate cake is one of my favorite foods. While watching, right before y'all said your reasoning for doing only chains, I thought about commenting that I appreciate it's chains because I can actually try the cake myself after, too! I like local things, but it's great to watch/eat a mix.
“wanna argue that it’s not a cake? be our guest! will it change the fact that we did it anyways? not at all!” love it😂 great video once again🫶🏼
😆 so glad you enjoyed it!
I liked how you guys scraped your plates after eating your slices! 😝
I have recently rewatched all of your videos (some for the third or fourth time such as the cookie creation video) and it was a great time ,only took me a month I wish I hadn't finished so soon but really excited to watch this one ,once again I really hope that the channel can become a source of income for you both as you truly disserve it ,I always enjoy the videos where your having fun all the way through the most but I understand wanting to challenge yourself ,so whatever videos you guys make I will always be here watching them ,you guys are the best
Dang, we seriously couldn’t appreciate the love more and so glad you enjoy the videos enough to be able to rewatch ‘em all! 😃 Humbled to have awesome people like you hangin’ with us and we hope the channel sees more success so we can keep bringing you the vids! Much love, Alexander!
Chocolate fudge cakes weren't really a big thing in the UK for a LONG time. Our chocolate cakes are good but lighter, fluffier sponge and more buttercream than ganache, mousse and truffle. It seems to be slooowly changing to include these styles of options and I am DESPERATE to try a good one. Speaking as a dark chocolate fiend who is all about truffley, moussey, ganachey fillings and frostings with a tooth and palate as rich as Croesus ("too rich" does not exist for me), this video was simultaneous joy and jealousy.
muhhahahahah nowadays we have a lot of that rich fudgey chocolate goodness in cafes
THIS IS A GREAT IDEA TAKEDOWN TWINS!!!! How did you feel after enjoying this challenge?? Similar ideas for future ideas: 1) Trying various brands of a few flavors of ice cream you love with various brands of different whipped cream to compare 2) Multiple brands of brownie mixes to compare and review 3) Reviews on multiple different brands of ice cream cakes or cookie dough 4) Comparing various brands and flavors of cake frosting with graham crackers, cookies, etc to dip in
It's a lot of fun seeing how far you guys have come. You've tried many different things and found your niche that's really stuck and given you both success. I'll keep following along and wish you the best of luck!
You guys are honestly the BEST! All my love to you, keep up the good work, you truly derserve more praise than you are already receiving. Your content quality is unparalleled
Oh my gosh I've died and gone to heaven, the next best thing to eating that much chocolate cake is watching my favourite twins eat it! I also found the comparisons really interesting too. Bruce Bogtrotter sprang to mind lol. I'm officially jealous but I absolutely loved this video, will watch it over and over! Much love to you both ❤️❤️
LOL! Definitely heard that a couple of times when we posted the photo of the Linda’s fudge cake 😆
So glad you enjoyed it and really appreciate the love, Caroline!
Stay awesome 😎
There aren't any Longhorn Steakhouses here in NYC but that Chocolate Stampede Cake looks SO SO good!
There’s one in Queens if that helps. Good luck!
Its so cool to see all the comparisons, thanks for doing all the work, great review! Always love your video ❤️
Wow, it must have took a long time to pick up all the different kinds of cake! Great video as always! I definitely added some cakes on my must-try-list for when I get to visit the US!
Thank you guys, keep up the great work!
It really did but we were determined 😅
We’re so glad you enjoyed the video and really appreciate the love!
What a mouthwatering video. I thoroughly enjoyed it and hope to see more like this. Keep them coming!
Thsts a lot of chocolate cake 😂. Have you guys considered doing a pancake challenge? And just imagine all the toppings you can bring to the table. Twin vs twin, unlimited topping with your creative souls. 🔥
I haven't even watched the whole video and I'm already happy, much love to you guy's all the way from SA. Your content is great as always ❤️💫
We’re happy you’re happy 😃 Thanks for the love and sending some right back to ya from the USA 💙
I usually don't like eating shows but you guys are super entertaining!
Yes, it is surprising that this wasn't a vanilla or white chocolate cake chain comparison. All that chocolate would be, as you said, RICH...I bet you stay clear of chocolate cake for a while...except that Longhorn one 😆😆 They sure looked delicious.
We love the Longhorn’s Chocolate Stampede, had it many times and never disappoints!!!!
Totally going to try PF Chang’s Great Wall of Chocolate cake now! I don’t know if you’ve heard of the Claim Jumper restaurant, but they’ve got a Chocolate Motherlode Cake that is very similar to it, only BIGGER if you’d believe it! Lol! And with walnuts on the outside along with chocolate chips. I always get it a la mode too because it’s best that way! Love your videos, keep them coming. ❤
I've had the Longhorn, and while it's been a long time, I remember it being awesome! Gotta go try it again to refresh my memory!
OMG « The Great Wall of Chocolate » is the best name, so accurate ! Great video friends 🤗😘
I really loved the ranking format edit with this video. Also appreciated the plating on those cakes! It's pretty cold where I live too, so I am with you guys on being cold unfortunately.
We’re so glad you’re enjoy this format! 😃 had to make as best of an attempt at plating them as we could as the to-go containers did NOT do the cakes justice 😆 we appreciate the love on that extra effort! Godspeed to us all getting through these cold months 💙
literally rewatch old videos just back again while i wait for new videos! best channel out here
Way too kind! Thank you for all the love and support 😃
wow seriously TYSM for making this video. i wish i seen it sooner! i LOVE chocolate cake. The olive garden brownie lasagna was good but a bit too rich and fudgy for me. Was hard to finish but no worries I saved the rest for the next day lol. The 30th anniversary cake is my go to from cheesecake! SO GOOD. i'll try there truffle cake one day :) and Longhorns as well. thanks again for this vid! SUPERRRR helpful you guys! Ya earned a sub ;)
I'm only 2mins in and I can already tell this is going to be SO good. Jealous. Insert drool.
And like always, catch up world!! Lets go!!!!!
With love, from Canada xx
DEFINITELY some drool worthy eats here 🤤 Much love to you from the States!
Always nice to come home to watch your videos, nice to discover products and chains from the US, it's unbelievable how many different chains you've got for every kind of food :o Big hello from Belgium ;)
That’s such a great observation! An Asian restaurant, Italian restaurant, Tex-max restaurant, American restaurant etc 😅
Thanks for watching :)
Much love!
This made my chocolate loving heart super happy!! Soooo yummy!! Another great one friends!! Much love!! 😍🔥
Gotta show some love to the chocoholics! 🤩 So glad you enjoyed, Christa! Much love right back to ya!
Chocolate cake is one of my favorite desserts of all time! You guys come up with the best and most unique videos. Loved the video as always :)
We’re so glad you enjoyed it and really appreciate the love 🙂
Wow - you did so well eating all that chocolate cake! They looked yummy though! I like chocolate cake warm with cream. I find the cream makes it less sickly. Much love❣️
Probably would have only taken another two slices to really do us in 😅 good times all around! Love us some chocolate cake with cream but fortunately it takes a lot to become sickly to us gluttons 😆 much love, Victoria!
Yessss! I have been suggesting that as the best restaurant dessert for years! The stampede is delicious ❤
Just found y’all ans here I am craving chocolate cake at 11pm! Y’all are amazing!
The one from Chilis, here in Brazil is called Pettit Gateau. You can find it in lots of restaurants. They also serve it filled with dulce de leche. You have to try it.
yehey ive been waiting for a new upload! love from the Philippines!
Just realized I could do this, yall are the goats keep up the work, yall gonna go big soon
WHAT?! Thank so much, man 🙏
Like seriously, that’s too generous and means a lot to us.
Much love!
@@TheTakedownTwins yall are mu favorite creators on the platform, your content means alot to me 🤣👍 been looking forward for this video ever since yall mentioned it in the community tab
Yaaaaaaaahs! I am HERE for this one! 😂😊
I’m blaming y’all for me only going to Longhorn steakhouse to try this chocolate cake 😂
you guys are so calming and relaxing to watch ❤
Loved to hear you shoutout the Gregg's Death by Chocolate! My favorite chocolate cake anywhere. Awesome video.
I'm so gutted that we don't have a Long Horns here... that Chocolate Stampead cake looked DEVINE 😍😱I'm shocked at how big some of the slices are in the States! As a Choco~holic this was an awesome taste test and I am seriously craving something chocolatey now 🤣
Love the tier list!
so excited to see the channel keep growing
🙏🙏
Omg I’m so excited to have my chocolate protein shake and cookie rn lol. I swear they’re going to taste better watching you guys eat cake 😆😆❤️
Hope you enjoyed the shake, cookie and video! We’re always down for a good protein dessert 😎
Takedown Thursday! New to the channel but not to big eats.. love you guys and thank you for the amazing videos!
Eyyy, welcome to the channel! So glad you found it and are enjoying the videos! 😃 much love to you!
@@TheTakedownTwins If you boys ever feel like adventuring to Chicago for a weekend food adventure, let me know! Be happy host and see how your stomach capacity compares to mine 😉
Hey Pete! Hey Nate! Happy Holidays! Another great video & I have to try some of these cakes😋 yum🍰
So glad you enjoyed, Alex! Some must try slices in there for sure 😍 Much love and happy holidays right back to ya!
The only thing better than chocolate cake is a new video from you two!
Chocolate cake is a lot to compete with so we’re honored to be out alongside it in pleasure 😃 We seriously appreciate the love, Alisa!
i love you guys so much! 🖤
Anybody that’s going to test chocolate cake has got my vote! I’m subscribing right now!
The Triple chocolate meltdown from Applebee's is a whole different experience in the restaurant lol! Always my fav!
I love this video idea. Pick a dessert item and compare chain restaurants versions of. Chocolate cake was the best choice to start off with.
The RI comment was great. I was hoping for Gregg’s, Chelos, and some other spots but I get it. Great video! Need another Feed The Cheeks video with the holiday flavors.
Honestly, we totally should’ve brought them anyways and seen how they stacked up… Hindsight is 20/20 😅
We’re working out some local integrations for the near future so that’ll be something to look forward to! Unfortunately our content is either already shot or purchased for everything through to the end of the year so we might miss out on Feed The Cheeks holiday offerings for the channel… but definitely more local stuff to come 🙏
Linda’s fudge cake is one of our favorites but we have to put in the microwave for like 15 seconds delicious!
Now I'm craving Chocolate. Wonderful video as always. Oh none of those restaurants are here in Germany that I know of. Have a great week.
Y’all may not have these chains but you’ve got the good chocolate over there 😍 Thanks for the love, Maria! Glad you enjoyed it!
I have got to try some of these chocolate cakes
There’s something so relaxing about watching u guys it feels like I’m the one doing it. Usually watch while dieting 😂.
Lol! Love that. We’ve heard it put that it’s like a stimulatingly edited RUclips video that you can relax with like a podcast 😅 that’s that was a pretty good way of describing it.
Much love!
Hi Nate! Hi Pete! I am definitely a chocoholic! I absolutely love chocolate in any form! Now I would like some Chocolate cake! Any way great video of course! Much love 💙
😃 so glad we did something you really enjoy/connect with, Alison!
Thanks for the love and hope you have a great week!
@@TheTakedownTwins You have a great week too!
Those cakes looked amazing!!! 🤤🤤🤤
Awesome video guys!!! 🔥🔥🔥
Also poor Pete strugling with his speech 🤣🤣🤣
Definitely not my finest hour for communication here 🤣 So glad you enjoyed, Cesar! Much love 🙏
Your videos are awesome guys
Y'all are inhaling these cakes!!! LOL. Love the video !!!!!!!
I had the same reaction when I first had the chocolate stampede too its my ultimate favorite too
For me. olive Garden and the volcano apple bees. But sad the prices are more expensive but the flavor r delicious. Yummy!
Great video as usual! I would love to see this with carrot cake (though obviously not as many restaurants serve it sadly) and other desserts/menu items
So glad you enjoyed it! We did a carrot cake video a while back but decided to do it by price points (gas station, grocery store, wholesale, chain restaurant, gourmet bakery, etc.) because there weren’t enough restaurants with carrot cakes 😅
@@TheTakedownTwins Yes I remember that video! Man these restaurants gotta get on that. At least I know what I'd order if I ever went to Longhorn Steak House 😆
Those cakes looked insane but so delicious!!!!😍🍰 I personally love getting the Chilli's molten lava cake free on my birthday
Certainly insane AND delicious!
Oooh free?! Even better! 🎉
fav video so far!
😃 SO glad you enjoyed it!
Yessss! This is going to be so good!
🎉🎉
have you ever been to portillos? it's a fast food restaurant that is mostly in Illinois, a few neighboring states as well. But they are known for their signature chocolate cake, and their famous item the chocolate cake shake! I highly reccomend
Never heard of it nor have we been to Illinois! Sounds like our kinda restaurant 🤩 Will have to keep it in mind if we ever come across one!
The Great Wall of Chocolate is amazing ❤
Hola miss chicos 😊😊😊 gracias y felicidades 😘😘
👋🤗💙
Are you downing eggnog between the slices? If so, AMEN!! Great video as always!
Eating my eggs and chicken and being very envious of all that delicious cake! 🎂
Hope you enjoyed the eggs, chicken and video!
I hope you twins have crazy plans for Christmas
You need to go to COSTCO and get their Tuxedo Cake.... Delish... Cutest twins on the internet....
Ok. I definitely need you guys to do a Q&A lol the fact that you guys eat everything at the exact same time almost in tandem… like, how? How much practice did you guys have? Do you guys pre-select an amount of bites per size of item consumed? Lol and how bad is your indigestion after having to eat at the same speed as your twin? 🙃 every time I watch your videos, I sit there like
👁️ 👄 👁️
We’ll have to do one when we launch our patreon 😁
All of our “practice” is just doing it weekly on the channel for a few years 😅 quite an obscure little shtick we somehow ended up with here lol!
In terms of indigestion, we have reeeeaally strong digestive systems, so we’re just a bit bloated the following day and just patiently wait for it to go down in a day or two. The food challenge days of trying to eat 2-4 times what we eat in videos now is really paying off I guess LOL!!
Really appreciate the fun comment and support 🙏
Much love!
Wow! Thanks for such a thorough response! 🤩 I know you guys have a LOT of questions/comments to answer under each of these videos so I appreciate the fact you took the time to comment back! 😃 you guys are awesome! 🤸🏾♀️ you got yourself a new subscriber! I look forward to watching your crazy fan base gros to the size of that chocolate stampede!🤪
Chocolate Stampede is the best. Outback’s chocolate from down under or Greg’s DBC are top tier too
Oh this is going to be delicious 🤤 🎂
😋😋
Kona Grill's chocolate cake is INSANE.
I love you guys I can't have cake anymore do I live for you're videos
So glad you’re enjoying them!
Much love!
HEY THERE MY FRIENDS , YA'LL GOT ME LONG-ING TO GO TO LONG-HORNS FOR A CHOCOLATE CAKE 😂😂 GOOD VIDEO TAKEDOWNERS 😊
We had ourselves longing to back every second of editing the video as well 😂 So glad you enjoyed, friend! Much love to you!
nice one guys
What are you guys drinking? It's a beautiful pastel yellow. I'm intrigued 🤔
Back to back first! Let’s go!
LEGEND!
You two should do a Gregg's dessert challenge and rank those!
nice
Ive never even heard of Unos Pizzaria before lol 😂
I was hoping the chocolate decadent cake from Costco was part of this competition
I have had the cake at Longhorns and it is the best chocolate cake I have ever had except for a chocolate cake I had at a steakhouse in Atmore Alabama at the Fire restaurant in wind Creek casino
"these are very similar in price point"
"Yeah I already talked about that"
🤣
😅🤦♂️
U guys should come try portillos chocolate cake if u come to Chicago! I love your guys videos!!
We would looove to come to Chicago someday! We don’t have the time or money to do it anytime soon, but it’s VERY high on our “must visit” list 🤩
Portillo's. That was easy.
My favorite chocolate cake as a kid was from Red Lobster! I'm curious how it would hold up against Longhorn or the Cheesecake factory
For your next food challenge, you guys can do the Indian sweet challenge and in the end, you guys can rate which one is your fav :)
I must admit I'm not a chocolate cake fan, but you made those massive chunks of cake look so decadent. Although it brought back a childhood memory of my face smothered in chocolate. No dought there's photographic evidence of that somewhere. 😂
Love that!!! Our favorite photo of us as little kids is the two of ATTACKING a massive sheet cake (no utensils in sight) 😅
How does it feel to stand up after these challenges? 😂❤
We haven’t done a real challenge in quite some time - this amount of food doesn’t phase us in terms of volume. We both are currently sitting around 10-11 pound capacities but are just enjoying making fun and informative videos rather than testing our limits. So, although it may seem crazy to the average person, we feel fine standing up after something like this 😅
@@TheTakedownTwins wow that’s amazing!😆
Chocolate cake and milk🤤
all of cheesecake factory's menu items are huge including their desserts, which are big enough to comfortably feed at least 3 people (no one person should eat that solo) so from a sharing standpoint, it is definitely a bargain to buy any of their desserts
