Description
“The perfect gift from Vienna. Better than the original with homemade apricot jam and chocolate fondant. The history of the actual Sacher cake begins when Prince Metternich commissioned his court kitchen, in 1832, to create a special dessert for himself and for his
high-ranking guests. “He
hadn’t better shame me tonight” he said. But the senior
chef was ill and the duty fell to the 16-year old boy Franz
Sacher (1816 – 1907), at that time an apprentice in his second year
who then invented the basic shape of the Sacher cake.”
