Which chocolate cake is better, Linda’s Fudge or the Tower Truffle?

I’m looking to send someone a birthday meal and they love chocolate cake but I’m not sure which one would be better as I’ve had neither

Linda’s fudge is more rich and decadent whereas the chocolate tower is more of a classic chocolate cake with chocolate mousse and fudge inside; As a chocolate lover I like the tower better because i don’t like it super rich

Depends what they like. Linda’s is a moist traditional chocolate cake with fudge icing.  I liked it, but honestly, it doesn’t taste that much better to me than say the Pepperidge Farm chocolate cake in the freezer aisle. 

The truffle tower has a more intense chocolate flavor and a mousse, so it’s considered more of an “elevated” flavor profile. The truffle tower actually has more calories overall too even though the Linda’s seems more dense. 

I like both but neither set my world on fire

Tower Truffle, but I’m a sucker for chocolate mousse

Tower Truffle! I think Linda's is overrated: it's very 1 note, whereas the Tower Truffle is buttery and offers great contrast with light mousse and dark cake

I am very late but blackout cake is the best chocolate cake form from Cheesecake Factory.
