August 30th, 2009 by admin
The chocolate cake recipe to make a Sachertorte is very famous worldwide. This sumptuous chocolate cake originated in Austria. It was created in 1832 by a 16-year-old chef’s apprentice, Franz Sacher. The original Sachertone is only sold in Vienna and Salzburg (it can be shipped from both cities).
At the time Sachertorte was sold only in Vienna and Salzburg as a lightly sweetened sponge chocolate with apricot jam between the layers. The cake is made with very dark chocolate icing and served with unsweetened whipped cream. The original chocolate cake recipe is registered by the Hotel Sacher in Vienna which was established be Franz Sacher’s son in 1876.
