Here the cake with the fewest calories is the 'Naked Chocolate Cake'. Often stunning naked chocolate cakes are made with less sugar and fat and have fewer calories. The trick to making a delicious chocolate naked cake is using good-quality chocolate and a flavorful sugar substitute. The chocolate used is mostly seen as the star of the cake. When a good-quality cocoa powder and mini chocolate chips are used being complemented with the sweet natural sugars found in fruits that should adorn the cake, it is a pure enjoyment to eat and calories are kept at a minimum.

Also if a homemade whipped cream (where the amount of sugar is controlled) and a no-fat chocolate sauce is added, a decadent cake can exist that will satisfy all the sweet cravings of almost everyone.

U.S. researchers and Nutritionix LLC, a team of registered dietitians using the largest known verified database of nutrition information, have found that the normal (typical) amount of calories for 1 serving of naked chocolate cake with 12 servings per cake is approximately 230 calories a slice. This number is below the amount for calories found in other cakes with the same serving requirements: a lemon cake (421 calories per slice), orange poppy-seed cake (414 calories per slice), and raspberry cheesecake (401 calories per slice).
