Smaller size or slices are best but any recommendations appreciated! I’m in Carrollton but willing to drive within 30 minutes max. Thanks in advance!

I’ve heard Henk’s in Dallas has the best German Chocolate cake.

I don’t see German chocolate cake on their website. I’ll give them a call and ask first thank you

In the back of their market section they have the counter for Black Forest Bakery where you can go order. As far as I know around holiday times you probably have to preorder well in advance.

I’ve heard that Henk’s makes them from a couple of people. Maybe it’s not a regular item. I think Central Market also makes them.

Also, I think someone asked this question recently. I’ll look for link.

I just added a link to my comment. Hope that helps. My grandmother made German Chocolate cakes every Christmas. They are so pretty but not my favorite cake.

Thank you so so much for that link. It’s my best friends birthday and her mom used to bake her one every year but passed during covid so I’d like to get her one this year but don’t know anything about cakes and I don’t like cakes lol thank you so much!
