Chocolate Covered Devil Dogs

Chocolate Covered Devil Dogs – A Sweet and Sinful Classic

Delight in a slice of snack cake history with Devil Dogs, a devilishly delicious treat first introduced in 1926. This two-layered treat became an accessible indulgence during the Great Depression, echoing the innovation and resilience of the 1930s American spirit.

Each Devil Dog features two chocolatey cake layers, sandwiching a creamy melt-in-your mouth filling. And to top it off – or rather, to coat it – the entire cake is enveloped in a layer of handmade chocolate. 

Today, Devil Dogs bring nostalgic delight to those who grew up with them and a curious wonder to those discovering them for the first time. Whether enjoyed as a lunchbox treat, a midnight snack, or a companion to a glass of milk, Devil Dogs remain an enduring of the Drake family lineup which started in 1879. 

Chocolate Fact: Devil Dogs were likely named for the Marine fighters of World War One, and not the "sinful" chocolate flavor, as most people think.

True Treats Sweet Tip: Pair your Devil Dogs with a bit of chocolate history! Try them alongside a hot cup of cocoa or add them to your favorite dessert plate for a playful nod to America’s snacking past.
