Because both girls had surgery yesterday, the last thing on my mind was my own birthday.  So what an incredible surprise when a brownie cake from Bake Me a Wish appeared at my doorstep!  Short of winning the lottery, this is the best surprise for this chocoholic!  When I got home from work, I stepped into a dining room covered in Hannah Montana party decorations (guess who picked out the party theme?).  Lily was quick to tell me that a cake had arrived and she wanted to eat it!  So, after removing it from the refrigerator and letting it thaw for about 30 minutes, we dove in!  I was a little concerned that a brownie cake would be too dense, but I was completely wrong!  This was an absolutely divine chocolate cake!  Definitely not too dense and not too sweet, it was perfect with a tall glass of cold milk!  Here is the description:

“Our moist & fudgy brownie cake goes through three chocolate “passes” before it’s “done”: first it’s enrobed in rich chocolate, then it gets completely blanketed with a shower of dark chocolate shaves; last, the cake is finished with milk and dark chocolate glazes drizzled all over and the Belgian chocolate plaque of your choice; for a brownie dessert that’s over-the-top-triple-delicious!”

summary

I have received flowers and cookie bouquets for various occasions, but never have a received a cake!  What a fabulous idea!  Bake Me a Wish has many different cakes to choose from including Red Velvet Chocolate Cake, Caramel Apple Crumb Cake, and a Cookies and Creme Cake.  From my experience with this company, I would not hesitate to order and send a cake to a loved one to help them celebrate.  The cakes were fresh, pretty, and delicious while the customer service was impeccable.  And the best part is that the prices are very reasonable.  The brownie cake I received can be purchased for $39.95!

Bake Me a Wish allows you to do something “sweet” for our Troops overseas!  Five percent of every cake order goes to Operation: Birthday Cake.  Together with Soldiers’ Angels, Bake Me a Wish delivers cakes to soldiers overseas on their birthday.  In addition, for $75, you can have a Freedom Cake delivered to your loved one and Bake Me a Wish will send an additional cake to a soldier overseas in the name of your recipient.  The brownie cake is covered in creamy fudge frosting an sprinkled in red, white and blue.

  172. The four inch cookies and cream would be great, that way there wouldn’t be so much around to undo a weight loss goal.

  173. I subscribed to their email. Never known when my step-son will have to go back over seas to serve in the armed forces. He’s already done two tours of duty and just got back a couple of months ago to the states, but one never knows.

  189. I want to try them all! But for the purposes of this giveaway, I will pick the Bostom Cream Cake. Thanks!

  265. Oh these are too decadent! Since I have to choose just one it would be the
    Magic Bar Brownie Cake
    Thanks.

  295. The frosted brownie Freedom Cake would be my choice and just knowing that when you buy that cake one goes to the troops oversees would make it taste that much sweeter. Thanks for a great giveaway!

  301. OH wow! I have to pick just one?! The Tiramisu Classico Cake looks soooo good, but so do all the others! Thanks for hosting this giveaway!

  321. Oh my, which one to choose!? I think Vanilla Bean Cake is the one I’d really like to try! And thank you for doing The Freedom Cakes to send to our military! I can only imagine how surprised they must be to get such a wonderful treat! Thank you!

  369. Happy birthday! Glad everything turned out fine for you and your family.

    Every item on the site looks luscious but I’d like to try the Caramel Apple Crumb Cake first.

    Thanks for the contest.

  374. I’d like to taste the Peanut Butter Mousse Cake and Boston Cream Cake. Please accept my entry. Thank you.

  375. I would absolutely adore the Triple Chocolate Enrobed Cake you feature not to mention the Red Velvet Cake or the Magic Bar Brownie Cake.

  409. The Triple Chocolate Brownie Cake would probably be my first choice, but the Magic Bar Brownie Cake looks delicious, too!

  422. I could blissfully work my way through their menu. But for starters the Tiramusu Classico cake would indulge my tastebuds.

  499. Caramel Apple Crumb Cake sounds yummy! I would give the cake, if I won, to my mom, she’s a chocoholic and next month is her 69th birthday, it would be perfect. Nice giveaway.

  518. Since reading about the fact that when you buy a Freedom Cake, and one would be sent to a soldier overseas brought me to tears, I’d have to say definitely that the Freedom Cake would be the one to buy. If I won, since my son is in law enforcement, I would just give it to him to share with everyone that he works with! After all, these men and women protect the homefront by doing the work that they do in our cities and towns.

  520. I signed up for “Bake Me A Wish” Newsletter.
    Also wanted to tell you how adorable your girls are…they look a lot like my 2 granddaughters, and seem to be about the same ages (6/1/2 and 2 1/2.)
    Hope that they are feeling better soon!
