Description

Join Mary Storey for an enchanting morning recreating the world’s most famous cake, the Classic Austrian Sacher-Torte,

Sumptuous Chocolate Cake Layers filled with
Delicious Apricot Jam and smothered in an
Indulgent Dark Chocolate Glaze and decorated with
the distinctive Sacher Piping and Edible Gold Leaf

The cake itself is the consequence of several lucky twists of fate. The first was in 1832, when the Austrian State Chancellor, Prince Klemens Wenzel von Metternich, tasked his kitchen staff with concocting an extraordinary dessert to impress his special guests. As fortune had it, the chef had fallen ill that evening, leaving the apprentice chef, the then-16-year-old Franz Sacher, to perform this culinary magic trick. Metternich’s parting words to the talented teenager: “I hope you won’t disgrace me tonight.”

Franz Sacher seized the moment and conjured up the confection of a lifetime, the chocolate cake that would go down in history as the ne plus ultra of desserts: the Original Sacher-Torte. Disgrace, in any case, was not on the menu that evening. The cake soon gained a cult following, and was deemed “presentable at court”. From then on, it was a favorite at the imperial court and soon went on to win the hearts (and palates) of the world.
