Sacher Torte
This very rich, chocolatey cake has a fascinating history. The cake was created in Vienna by apprentice Pastry Chef, Franz Sacher in 1832. He was 16 years old at the time. The head chef was ill that day and Prince Klemens Wenzel von Metternick, an Austrian State Chancellor, requested a very special cake for one of his guests, so young Sacher was tasked with the challenge of coming up with something very special.
