About CAKE, CHOCOLATE
Hershey's Chocolate Cake sold at Walmart under the Hershey's brand represents an in-store bakery cake produced under a licensed Hershey's brand arrangement, incorporating Hershey's alkali-processed cocoa as the primary chocolate flavoring. This is a moist chocolate layer cake with chocolate frosting from Walmart's bakery department.
The formulation begins with sugar and enriched bleached wheat flour. Whole eggs and egg whites provide structure. Hershey's cocoa processed with alkali (Dutch-process cocoa) delivers the characteristic mild, dark chocolate flavor. The fat system includes soybean oil, margarine made from palm and soybean oils with annatto color and artificial flavor, palm oil, canola oil, glycerin, and mono- and diglycerides. Invert sugar and corn syrup contribute moisture and sweetness. A complex emulsifier system includes propylene glycol mono- and diesters, polysorbate 80, polysorbate 60, and sodium stearoyl lactylate. Notably, this USDA record lists partially hydrogenated vegetable oil (soybean and cottonseed) as an ingredient, which indicates this was a pre-reformulation record captured before the 2018 FDA partial hydrogenation phase-out. Current formulations should be verified for trans fat removal. Allergens include wheat, eggs, dairy (nonfat dry milk, whey), and soy.
Per 100 grams, this cake provides 368 calories with 53.95 g carbohydrates, 15.79 g fat, and 2.63 g protein, plus 2.6 g dietary fiber from the cocoa content. Serving size is 76 g. The trans fat flag is significant for historical context.
