Description
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.”
