: My wife asked if I might make a Chocolate Mocha Cake for a coworkers birthday. She talks about it often. At the bakery we made Mocha Tortes, which consisted of 4 thin layers of gold cake, filled and iced with Mocha Buttercream. This we made by dissolving some instant coffee in a little water and folding into regular white buttercreme icing.

If I add a mixture of about a Tablespoon of the Instant Coffee granules to the cake batter for an 8" cake (a choc fudge mix),and reconstitute another Tablespoon in a little liquid and add it to Chocolate Buttercream Icing, will it give me the Chocolate Mocha flavor I'm looking for?

I got some Star Bucks Mocha Frappuccino the other day to try for the Mocha flavored chocolate cake, but, unfortunately I haven't tried it yet to let you know how it worked for a nice Mocha flavored cake that way. Since I gave you the idea, maybe you will get to try this combination before I do. I'll let everyone know on this message board how it turns out as soon as I do try it.
