The history of the Sacher Cake or Sachertorte in German begins in 1832, when Prince Metternich ordered his personal chef with creating a special dessert for several important guests. But the master chef head chef got sick, so the task was handed to a boy of 16 years named Franz Sacher who was an apprentice in his second year of training.
The boy obviously did a great job as his cake became the most popular cake or in German “Torte” of the whole world. As of today the original recipe is a secret and is only used in the Hotel Sacher. The original cake has a seal on top of the cake which is made out of chocolate (of course). You can see that seal on the photo. Happy Baking!
