1. Chocolate: With so many different chocolate flavors depending on the richness, it can be easily paired with other flavors such as strawberry, mint, and banana. To make it super rich, tell your baker to add chocolate fudge or choose a German chocolate cake to lighten the flavor. Considering the fact that chocolate has been the #1 flavor for years in a row, your guests will not resist holding back from taking another bite!
