Please forgive me, but I have to laugh.

They are advertising their dessert, tunnel of fudge.

Doesn't that crack anyone up, so to speak?

What can I say, I'm given to word games such as double entrendes.
It made me laugh. Just a little joke.

Tunnel of fudge is a well-established Bundt cake recipe. It's been around
for nearly 40 years. It's a Pillsbury bake-off thing. They used to sell a
boxed mix when Bundt cakes were all the rage.

Did I miss something, or have you really never heard of "tunnel of fudge"
as a dessert?

Yes, I know that (or worse), but what I don't get is that all of a sudden
they're thinking this? Tunnel of fudge cake cas been a dessert for
decades. More like they're just trying to find something funny to write.
Phffft! How silly!
