Tall, Dark & Delicious Father’s Day Cake!

My church gives a small gift for the women for Mother’s Day and for the men for Father’s Day. Traditionally, they’ve always gifted the women a candy bar. The past few year, though, we have received another small gift that was much more thoughtful, but much less sweet. The funny thing to me, though, is without fail the men always get a candy bar for Father’s Day. It must be true, men can have a sweet tooth, too! My dad is a prime example of that, he layers his treats with more sweets like Pumpkin pie so covered in whip cream you literally CAN NOT see it anymore!

I received a complimentary Tall, Dark & Delicious cake and compensation for this post. All opinions are my own. 

Tall Dark & Delicious Cake




This year, treat him to an ice cream cake your whole family can indulge in to celebrate dad! We had a chance to sample their new specialty cake designed with dad in mind – their Tall, Dark & Delicious Father’s Day Cake! It’s made of layers of moist Devil’s Food Cake, Sweet Cream Ice Cream with Brownies & Chocolate Ice Cream with OREO® Cookies wrapped in fluffy White Frosting and cascading Fudge Ganache.

Sounds drool-worthy, don’t you think?

We all really loved this cake. The ganache and frosting layer are so good together. Plus, since there are two pretty different layers of ice cream, alternating bites almost feel like a fresh taste experience! I’ve discovered that every time I enjoy another slice of this cake I find myself liking it more and more. The layers just go so well together.

You can choose between a large round size that serves 14 or a small round that serves 8. Since the cake is so rich and delicious, I cut just a small sliver for my boys and it’s a perfect amount for them.

Father's Day Photo - Landscape You can order a Tall, Dark & Delicious or any other specialty cake right on Cold Stone’s website and the cake will be ready for you when you need it. That way, you’re guaranteed to have your perfect cake ready for you for Father’s Day! Stay connected with Cold Stone Creamery on twitter at @ColdStone.
