Chocolate Ice Cube Cake – Ledene Kocke

Posted on by

Looking for a cool, chilled summer cake? Ice Cube cake is the perfect cake to make on a hot summer day! This cake is actually a Croatian recipe translated from “Ledene Kocke”. It’s a fairly easy recipe to make and reminds me a lot of McCain’s Deep’n Delicious frozen cakes! It’s a fairly straight forward recipe with not a lot of ingredients, and not a lot of baking experience is required to make it either.

Some things I love about this cake is that you can eat a lot of it! It’s not very filling, its a very light cake and it tastes almost like your are eating pudding. This makes it a wonderful cake to eat during the hotter months of the year. This cake spends a lot of time “chilling” in the freezer, so it’s definitely something you would want to plan for ahead of time. Don’t think you’ll be eating this cake straight out of the oven – it’s step by step process requires cooling down and then a long while setting in the fridge. All in all, it’s definitely worth the wait since it’s absolutely delicious!
