A good and clear recipe. For a few alternatives. Try adding a small jar of cherries preserved in brandy to your cherries. Or, try brushing each layer with kirsch or the reserved brandy from a jar of cherries in brandy. Moisture and alcohol are very nice. Or, try grating a dark chocolate bar. Also, try using arrowroot rather than cornstarch, as this gives more clarity and less cloudiness.
No, not an original Schwarzwälder Kirschtorte. Requires Kirschwasser, can be sprayed on the slices later if your want to select if someone has alcohol or not. The cherries on the top are only single ones for decoration not the cooked cherries, they all go in between the layers. Greetings from the Schwarzwald!
Surrounding the cake, I think can put shredded chocolate instead of cake lump😁
You can but if you need to trim your cake this would be a great way to use that excess, and why not mix it with shredded chocolate
@@Birb2022 because it's supposed to have shredded chocolate and no one wants more cake on the outside of their cake.
Good
@@Birb2022 Very good idea.

💝 I'm not a huge cake person but black forest gets me every time lol. Subtly sweet chocolate with cherry filling. The creaminess balances things out nicely. That's my birthday thing if not pumpkin pie.
Loving the jolly music
I remembered eating this Kind of cake in makaki ayala this cake is melting in my mouth can't describe how good it is! 😍 😍
I loved the music. I usually mute videos but this one was so lovely to listen to. And great recipe too.
Thank you so much for this black forest cake recipe. This way the cake will not be wet ( pouring syrup on the cake layers before spreading the whipped cream). Very clear demonstration.
Mayby it's not a traditional German recept, but taste of cake is wonderful. I' ve done this cake and enjoyed my result!
it is German, called "Schwarzwaldtorte"
Hi lovely recipes thanks for the sharing
I remember in the 80's there was a Pillsbury cake mix for a Black Forest bundt cake. Had this cream you'd put in the center and then the cherries on top. Was SO good!!!
interresting how many varieties exists of this delicious cake. In Germany the bisquit layers are aromatised with "Kirschwasser " = cherry brandy.
True, given the fact that Black Forest is originally an adults cake.
@@ameenaaneesh6862 True and not true. Since the alcohol concentration is quite low this cake is concidered ok for older children here in Germany. They will not be given a whole piece though.
I loved the music 🎶 in the video.....the music took over the cake 🎂.
But really, the cake looks amazing and I'm trying it soon. 👌
Thanks for the recipe.😊
GREAT CAKE, CAME OUT REALLY WELL. MANY THANKS.
Shouldn’t you brush each layer with a syrup to give the cake a moist !
if you know how to make a good moist cake, shouldn’t need the simple syrup 😅
victoriarose it's not to make the cake moist, the kirshwasser is primarily for flavor ... many people make it non alcoholic though so it would be fine without the kirshwasser as well. Traditionally , we use the Kirsch wasser though.
So far, this has been the easiest recipe ever. However, I’ll use melted unsalted butter instead of oil. Thanks.
Great to hear! Melted butter sounds lovely
Although butter and oil are both fats, they work differently in baked goods. Butter has more flavour and richness, but it will affect the texture and moistness of the cake.
Chocolate cakes turn out better with oil instead of butter. Give it a shot with oil before substituting butter in!
Can I know howmuch butter you used
@@discoguru8363 Thank you, Discoguru for this clear tip. I always wanted to make with butter. Never did because the recipe showed oil instead of butter.
But in olden days people used only butter or ghee or margarine to bake cakes. Don't know why.
If the recipe doesn't call for a lightly sweetened dark chocolate cake that has soaked up kirsch liqueur, it's not a black forest gateau, it's just a chocolate cake with cherries. A good black forest cake/gateau has a cake and cream that aren't really sweet. The sweetness comes from the cherries and the cherry liqueur/syrup that permeate the cake. Otherwise it's just sugar on sugar on sugar that's only good for a couple of bites, and then just makes you feel sick.
Can you suggest a proper recipe please?
Yes!
I appreciate your comment so very much! About 5 yrs ago a woman who lived most of her life in England told me that it was called Black Forest Gateau and how it was really made. I’ve seen nothing like that before or since then and thought that item was not made anymore.
It’s here on YT, just type in “original Black Forest cake. Baking with Aya has a good one but there are other original German ones.
100% the best part of black forest cake is the contrast between bitterness and fruitiness, flavors which sugar should complement not mask!
Plain flour, caster sugar, cocoa powder600 g, eggs, milk , veg oil, vanilla extract, parchment paper, 3 tins of cherry, cornflour, whipping cream, icing sugar, dark choclate
I got a black forest for my birthday 🎂🎉😁
Lovely off course classic cake
why did you put oil in your batter?!
you don't need to deep fry the cake
Where’s the kirsch?
Loved our music and recipe tòooo👍🎂🌺
can i use butter instead of oil
Thank you for using metrics in recipe!!
corn flour nahi dala to chalega ya uske jagah. kuch aur dal sakte hai kya
👏 Appreciate your sharing! 😻 👍 ✌
This was mesmoring excellent ecipe
I want to know does buttercream frosting taste good in black forest cake?
I DID FIND IT HARD TO RE-LOOK AT THIS RECIPE FROM A YEAR AGO. ANY HELP WILL BE APPRECIATED.! I DID HAVE IT IN MY EMAIL, BUT SOMEHOW IT WAS GONE!!
where is the kirschwasser ??? That is Authentic for Black Forest Cake ! :) if it's not there ,,,it's just not there
What if the syrup on the cake layers is not there. A good moist, soft and fluffy chocolate with thick frosting with that layer of cherry, sure enough you can take this cake to another level. Those who still want to use the syrup or rum or brandy or even wine can go ahead do it and then apply the frosting.
Thank you for the video.
zabardustttttt yummyyyyyyyy......
very nice recipe
how many ml of eggs? how many mg of cake?
can we do the same recipie in cooker?
YUMMY 😋 AMAZING CAKE 🍒 THANKS YOU GOODNESS 🌟❤️🖤💚🤎 FAMILY DAPHNE COTTON ALWAYS 💜 AWESOME,

It fled to the Black Forest.

Yeah now i've found real Black forest recipe Thanks!
this recipe is actually quite wrong..
Black forest cake traditional German cake
Which brand of whipped cream you used?
tesco
Hello Mam, I don’t find whipping cream in Tesco. Cork. Can you help me out for whipping cream Mam.
x2 speed makes the video much better imo)
the music is faster and feels lighter
i watched it 3 times already at x2 speed, because the music sounds pretty catchy this way)
great video anyway, thanks for the recipe!
so a black forest cake is a chocolate cake with cherries?
If you need brandy in your cake you should probably consider AA meetings
Rico
Looks good, but soooo much sugar in the cherry sauce!!!
probably taste good but looked messy with the crumbs 😢
I wouldn't ever do crumbs, just chocolate shavings
yay a german cake
Goood
You miss the rum too😕 to make cake better taste use butter 😊 and why you write classic black forest cake ,If the way you mk it's not really original Black forest cake ..? Ex My mother in law she from germany and her the house just near were in black forests and she and my ex husband took me around tour to area the Naturpark Schwarzwald Mitte/Nord and is situated in the northern and central Black Forest, and the other, the Naturpark Südschwarzwald, is located in the southern Black Forest. and she made and teach me how to mk black forest cake very yummy😊.
Then post your video for Classic Black Forest Cake, otherwise don't complain.
Share the recipe then
Don't put down someone who is helping the general public to prepare food. Show your cake in the channel and explain how it is the classic German blackforest cake. It would be extremely helpful to people like us who are daily searching in the CZcams for an authentic blackforest cake.
Substitute the vegetable oil with something like avocado oil or extra virgin cold pressed olive oil
ARE THEY VEGETABLE OILS TOO
Totaly wrong this is american black forest cake not german
Yes, it does seem a bit strange and I don't think they used liquor or even cherry juice.
Usually there's just two biscuit floors and sometimes a crumbly one at the button, we use more eggs and the absence of lemon peel is blasphemy in my eyes.
It's like they took the cake but forgot all the special things.
Maybe you'd like to have a look at my channel :) I'm German-American and I converted the German recipe to American measurements 😊
Yeah, you´re really right. The sponge cake of the classic Black Forest is totally different.
What's the difference?
chiclesdeadospesos traditional sponge contains whipped egg white and no baking soda. Cherries have to be sour cherries, otherwise the whole thing will get too sweet. The sponge layers and the cherries are soaked with loads of Black Forest kirsch(wasser) (=cherry brandy), it’s traditionally quite heavy in alcohol, not a dessert for kids..top and sides are decorated with dark chocolate shaves, not crumbs.. here’s an introduction to the real thing: czcams.com/video/T1mpIYBsMhI/video.html
Nice job, but real Schwarzwald Kuchen has Rum in the cake layers
this is very untraditional...
Pre-heating and greasing the tins should be listed as step 1, for obvious, practical reasons. Similarly ingredients should be listed in full at the start. Basic recipe courtesy, even in video format.
I think this one is more of a classic recipe. I have tried to translate it into English, so I hope it is understandable.
For the dough, mix 200g flour, 1 tbsp cocoa powder, 1 tsp baking powder, 50g sugar, 1 sachet vanilla sugar and 100g butter. Pour the dough onto the bottom of a 28cm round baking tin and press apart - do not raise the edges!
Bake in the preheated oven at 160°C for approx. 15 minutes. Then increase the temperature to 175°C.
For the sponge mixture, beat 8 egg whites until stiff and set aside. Then whisk together 8 egg yolks, 180 g sugar and 1 sachet vanilla sugar until you have a creamy "soft" mixture. Add 2 pinches of cinnamon and 6 drops of bitter almond oil to the egg and cream mixture. Now stir the beaten egg whites into the cream mixture very carefully, otherwise the mixture will collapse.
Now fold 220 g flour, 20 g cocoa powder and 3 tsp baking powder into the cream (do not stir). Pour this batter into a greased 28cm round baking tin.
Bake in the preheated oven at 175°C for approx. 30 minutes (test with a stick). Leave to cool and cut twice.
For the filling, drain the morello cherries, reserving the juice. Bring the cherry juice to the boil and thicken with 5-6 tbsp. flour, 3 tbsp. sugar and 5-6 tbsp. cherry brandy to make a firm mixture (add more flour or cherry brandy if necessary). Put 12 cherries on the side for decoration. Then stir in the remaining cherries and leave to cool.
Whip 4 cups of cream with 4-5 tbsp of icing sugar (divide the cream into portions so that there is enough for everything - if there is still not enough for the decoration, you can whip another cup).
Then proceed as follows: Place the dough at the bottom and spread a layer of cherries (you can use a little more than for the other bases), then spread a layer of cream. The cream must not turn red from the cherries, but must remain separate from them. Then place the first sponge cake layer on top and cover it with cherries and cream like the kneaded dough, repeat the same twice. Then decorate the cake with the rest of the cream. Spread cream all around, both on top and on the edges. Then pipe 12 dots of cream with the piping bag and place a cherry on top of each one. Finally, sprinkle the cake with chocolate shavings.

USA People: Corn flour is Corn Starch.
I like the cake - no cherries - NO Fruit on my Chocolate - EVER!
The kid in me stayed 🙃
Damn that is a lot of sugar in that thang!
The amount of sugar is totally insane
👍👍👍👍👌😍
follow all the recipe with the digital scales and meas cup and everything . THE CAKE CRACK AND BROKEN AND SUPER DRY. wasting money for all ingredients. ^^. I DISLIKE this recipe
😁
Vot an insult to deutscheland.☹️
Ok ze forgot ze Kirschwasser and maraschino cherries🙏🏼
Wow I can understand German!
too much cherry
Nice, 700gms of sugar.!!!
Diabetes
The cake is a lie
the music is torture
omg that music is soooo annoyong
I hated this cake lol
🗨️🎂
looks sexy
Sorry to say, but this is just about as far from the traditional Black forest cake as one can get.
It may be a good cake, but it's nothing like the original at all.
Mistake 1: you didn't beat the eggs, usually the beaten eggs are the main thing holding the cake up and making if fluffy.
Mistake 2: are you trying to give us diabetes? at that rate you could just as well just eat sugar.
Mistake 3: Oil has NO place in this cake, sorry mate.
Mistake 4: too few eggs. Try at least 1-2 more.
Mistake 5: Milk. Again, not something that is in the traditional cake, certainly not in these quantities (we're talking a few spoonful in some recipes)
Mistake 6: crumbling one layer.
Nitpick 1: Most of the times these oldentimes cakes are baked in one piece, then cut apart into layers. It takes a bit of practice so baking them apart is perfectly acceptable, but still.
Nitpick 2: Not using a crumbly cake floor. Older recipes generally call for one.
Nitpick 3: Putting some candied orange in the dough makes it much better.
Yeah 400g of sugar is waaaay too much. I only use 80-100g of sugar when making an 8-inch cake!
Then post your video for Classic Black Forest Cake, otherwise don't complain.
In other words: Put up or shut up.
