I had this processed cake this morning which looks like the following: it is a redish brownish cake with cream inside, and it is chocolate covered. I don't know it's name and i have to log it.

like a Hostess ho-ho, suzy Q, or ding dong?

It is mostly like the dingdongs except the cake was redish in color and it was slightly thinner.

I'd quick log at least 200 calories for it.

If it was reddish-brown then it was most likely velvet cake but I've never seen something like that commercially packaged.

I'd probably log it as a ding dong if you don't find the exact thing. :-)

If it was about the size of a ding-dong, log it as a ding-dong. Manufacturer's nutrition labels are only required to be accurate within +/-20% (in the US anyway). You're going to be close enough with a ding-dong. None of this is an exact science.

Measure with a micrometer. Mark with a piece of chalk. Cut with an axe.

Ugh, we used to get one of those EVERY day in our lunches. I hated them. We only got them because my brother loved them and my mom wouldn't get two kinds of goodies.
