About CHOCOLATE TURTLE CAKE, CHOCOLATE TURTLE
Meijer Chocolate Turtle Cake is a multi-layer chocolate cake with caramel, pecan, and chocolate components sold under the Meijer private-label brand by Meijer, Inc. of Grand Rapids, Michigan. This product belongs to the cakes, cupcakes, and snack cakes category and is a fully assembled ready-to-serve bakery cake product.
The ingredient list is extensive, reflecting the complexity of a finished layer cake. Primary components include icing sugar, granulated cane sugar, and vegetable shortening composed of canola oil, palm oil, and modified palm and palm kernel oils with polysorbate 60 and monoglycerides. The cake base uses bleached enriched wheat flour (fortified with niacin, reduced iron, ascorbic acid as dough conditioner, thiamine mononitrate, riboflavin, alpha amylase, and folic acid), partially skimmed milk, liquid whole egg, and alkalized cocoa. A margarine component contains soybean oil, palm oil, whey (milk), vegetable monoglycerides, soy lecithin, natural flavor, annatto extract, and turmeric for color, along with vitamins A and D3. The formulation also includes partially skimmed milk, butter (cream, salt), unsweetened chocolate, pecans, and sweetened condensed milk. Notable ingredients include blackstrap molasses, a partially hydrogenated fat reference in the shortening (modified palm and palm kernel oils — current trans fat status should be verified on current packaging), potassium sorbate as a preservative, and xanthan gum.
