Please tell me what Choco-Bliss is/was! All these swoonings and moanings, and I have no idea what you are talking about! Also korpu. I seem to have missed out on something here.
As for Zwieback, that I remember. I was given a copycat recipe for that nearly 30 years ago but haven't made it in years and years. My mouth is watering now! Mine is made of a mildly sweet dough much like yours, but it is baked in 13/9 cake pans, cut lengthwise into three strips, then sliced and baked to dry them out as yours is. I'll have to do it again, soon. Thanks for bringing that idea back!
Well, here's a comment from another blog about Choco-Bliss. It'll give you the idea:
"By now you might be wondering just what in God's name a Choco-Bliss cake was. Its closest living relative is a Hostess "Suzy-Q," but this thing was eighty times more indulgent. Let me break it down: there were two devil's food cakes smacked together, with the upper cake being topped with chocolate cake icing. In-between the cakes was a light whipped chocolate, effecting transforming Choco-Bliss into the most disgustingly tasty treat ... As you'd imagine, the cakes were insanely thick -- taller than a Twinkie and nearly double the width."
Also, for a laugh, here's a link to a YouTube video showing a Choco-Bliss commercial from the '80s
