my grandson s favorite type of cake is chocolate.
[{"role": "system", "content": "Chocolate cake or Chocolate gateau (from French: \"g\u00e2teau au chocolat\") is a cake flavored with melted chocolate, cocoa powder, or both. Chocolate cake is made with chocolate; it can be made with other ingredients, as well. These ingredients include fudge, vanilla creme, and other sweeteners. The history of chocolate cake goes back to 1764, when Dr. James Baker discovered how to make chocolate by grinding cocoa beans between two massive circular millstones. In 1828, Conrad Van Houten of the Netherlands developed a mechanical extraction method for extracting the fat from cacao liquor resulting in cacao butter and the partly defatted cacao, a compacted mass of solids that could be sold as it was \"rock cacao\" or ground into powder. The processes transformed chocolate from an exclusive luxury to an inexpensive daily snack. A process for making silkier and smoother chocolate called conching was developed in 1879 by Rodolphe Lindt and made it easier to bake with chocolate, as it amalgamates smoothly and completely with cake batters. Until 1890 to 1900, chocolate recipes were mostly for chocolate drinks, and its presence in cakes was only in fillings and glazes. In 1886, American cooks began adding chocolate to the cake batter, to make the first chocolate cakes in the US.\n"}, {"role": "user", "content": "Chocolate cake is my absolute favorite!"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "I know mine too! it is also called chocolate gateau (from french words) and it is a cake flavored with either meltd chocolate, cocoa powder, or both."}, {"role": "user", "content": "I've not had that variant.

But there is a band in melbourne austrailia called My Friend the Chocolate Cake. Would be funny if their favorite cake was strawberry though "}, {"role": "user", "content": "Yeah, I imagine keto chocolate is unsweetened, so would be a little more bitter than normal.  What genre of music is My Friend the Chocolate Cake?"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "They are a contemporary band! They won two ARIA music awards for it. Two of their albums are \"Brood\" and \"Good Luck\" :)"}, {"role": "user", "content": "I'll have to look them up.  Do you enjoy ice cream with your cake, or just chocolate cake by itself?"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "Both. I can eat chocolate cake for breakfast LOL! But that wasnt possible for those in the 1800s because until around 1900 chocolate recies were mostly for drinks and whe it came to cakes it was only in fillings and glazes. That is upsetting to hear but at least we know better now haha."}]
