I'm getting into my roots and trying to learn to cook German food. My birthday is Friday and I'm making this for myself! Thank you for the excellent video
That’s so exciting! I hope you have an amazing birthday :)
Top quality. This probably sounds weird but in the UK, this cake - despite having both English and German names for a German torte - is universally known as "Black Forest Gâteau", even though it is not French.😊
Thank you so much 😊!
I had no idea that it was called Black Forest Gâteau in the UK. It’s funny how many names this cake has.
En Chile ; lo llamamos * Selva Negra*
Seguí su receta porque la vi que usted, no complica la receta... ❤🇨🇱
There is such a thing called Schwarz Wealder kirschwasser
Or you can use the leftover for rum gugeln
Rum Kugeln are such a great idea, I’ll definitely try that out with my leftovers next time!
Love this cake what size was the cake pan please and how high thank you
I use a Wilton 2105-6105 tin which is 8 inches and 3 inches deep. Hope that helps 😊
@@lottapauline Thank you
Where do you find the sourkirschen?
There is a European Market & Produce store near where I live that carries a bunch of canned fruit and jams. They are definitely a bit tricky to find in Canada though.
