All opinions expressed in this post are my own. GoGo Quinoa provided me with products in order to facilitate this review.
There’s just something about packaged chocolate cake mixes. Firstly, they’re easy to prepare – just mix in a bowl and bake. Secondly, they’re the perfect consistency and texture – fluffy, cakey, moist, and of course rich and decadent. Unfortunately, they’re also loaded with refined flour and sugar, and more often than not many unhealthy ingredients. If I told you that I’ve found a vegan, organic, gluten-free, kosher, non-GMO chocolate cake mix product that also happens to be nutritious, packed with protein, and rich and decadent, would you believe me? The proof is in the pudding, or rather, the cake.
GoGo Quinoa is a manufacturer specialized in ancient grains and quinoa products and their mission is to provide healthy gluten-free products, not only for those with celiac disease, wheat allergies, gluten intolerance or those who choose to follow a wheat free diet, but delicious tasting products that the whole family will enjoy, and this dark chocolate cake mix is no exception. This gluten free and organic mix allows you to easily bake a decadent, moist and deliciously chocolaty cake and only takes minutes to prepare. The recipe instructions on the back of the package yield a delicious dark chocolate cake however, I’ve made this so many times that I’ve tweaked the recipe to make it even more delicious – if that’s even possible! You can follow the recipe below or the one provided by GoGo Quinoa. Either way the end result will be delicious, decadent, and most likely devoured the moment you take it out of the oven!

Looks delightful!
We are trying to get healthy so this cake would be a great option for my family. it looks rich and I like what you added to it.
these look great
This cake would be great for my family of chocoholics!
It is so rich and decadent, you’d love it!
These look amazing! Would love to try!
Oh my .. this looks so good! We’re having a dinner party this weekend and had my eye out for a gluten-free dessert. I’ll be looking for GoGoQuinoa at the grocery. Thanks for sharing it with your readers
I usually love preparing my own recipes however, this one is so quick to prepare and so foolproof…and delicious too! You could even top it with a chocolate ganache!
fantastic! Looks incredible!
I am obsessed with Quinoa! I would be so grateful and thrilled to win this! TY for the chance!
Me too! Good luck!
This gluten-free chocolate cake recipe looks delicious. I’ve heard of using applesauce in cake recipes but haven’t tried it with coconut milk. Does it add a hint of coconut flavor to the final cake? Also, is the cake mix made of quinoa? I love that this is chocolate cake will satisfy chocolate cravings and still be healthy. Thanks for sharing!
I think the coconut flavour is very very subtle. You would maybe notice it if you didn’t like coconut oil! The cake mix IS made of quinoa, isn’t that amazing?
Awesome, thanks! I really need more of these types of recipes. My body is all screwed up lol. I need to get back to eating healthier again.
This gluten free chocolate cake looks amazing! I must try it ASAP. I can’t believe it has quinoa in it! I must try this new to me brand. What a great giveaway too!
I love everything this brand makes! You should check out their other products too.
That cake looks so VERY good! I am very interested in this product you used to make it too!
You should check out their website! They’re products are amazing!
Oh I did and I bookmarked it too! 🙂
Now this is a cake which is worth trying and I am trying to convert to glueten free as I drink too much diary products at the end of the day. But seriously after seeing this post and a few others…how about a few more healthy ideas instead of desserts. I am always wetting my lips looking at your food 😀
I definitely think you would be converted if you tried this cake!
It’s certainly making me feel hungry to read this! My husband cooks and bakes gluten-free a lot, and when it’s done well, you can’t tell! I’d love to try this recipe for a work function or party. YUM to chocolate.
I do as well but it’s always so much easier to prepare things that are already ‘prepared’ for you!
Oh how I love dark chocolate, unlike the rest of my family. I am trying to talk myself into going gluten-free. This will help make the transition easier.
Wow this looks really good. I have to try this one out. I have never heard of it before but it looks amazing! My family loves a good cake and when it is chocolate, it doesn’t last long around here, we have to try this one out!
I’m telling you that you will NOT notice that this is gluten-free!
I’m allergic to the gluten protein so we don’t have any wheat, barley, rye or oats in the house. It’s really tough finding high quality gluten free foods. There are not a ton of healthy treats out there. This chocolate cake recipe looks absolutely fabulous!
Hi Jeff! I hear you about the issues with gluten, although mine is very mild. I think you would love these products.
looks great
Thanks Darla! Good luck!
Yes this is also something I’ll DEFINITELY have to try! I’ve been working on transitioning my kids to gluten free especially, but it’s been a difficult process.. how can they be smart enough at their ages to notice a difference. ..Really ?!!! Anyways, celiac disease, among other intestinal issues run in my family and we all know how strongly
genetics work against us sometimes, so I’ll keep on trying
Thanks Lisa
Oh no Rose! You really need to take care of your gut health! Good luck Rose 😉
Looks like a great recipe to try. I woudl never think to add Quinoa to a cake. YUM! Anything chocolate sounds great.
Thanks Censie! Good luck!
GoGo Quinoa seems like a great brand and something I would definitely incorporate into my daily diet. This cake seems scrumptious. Love the fact that it’s vegan but still looks super moist.
Oh man, this sounds delicious. Cake is my biggest weakness, when it comes to desserts. I haven’t met very many that I don’t love. I’m not much of a cook, but I might have to try making this one.
I’m definitely trying this recipe out!! It’s perfect because you can have dessert and not feel guilty!! It looks so decadent!! Love GoGoQuinoa!! Can’t wait to try more of their products!! ❤❤
This is my weak spot. I will be doing these tonight.
This looks amazing!! I must try out these products. Thanks for the info!
Thanks Lisa! We love the cookies from Gogo Quinoa. I really love that gluten free with this company means no corn!
Those look so delicious!
I have friends who require attention to a gluten-free diet. Useful information.
I will forward this recipe to my good friend for him and his wife to try. Thank you
Thanks so much! I hope they enjoy it!
I absolutely love quinoa. Its gluten free and packed with protein. Would love to try this.
I know! This is seriously so delicious!
Can’t wait to try this new recipe
Di, you would love this!!
Mmmmm… Lisa, you should start posting salads! All of these delicious must try desserts are killing :)…
Haha! Have you not looked on the Blog? It’s full of healthy recipes, even salads!!! lol
This cake looks amazing!
