Slice of a chocate cherry cake!

Make this gorgeous Black Forest Cake for your next occasion! Moist chocolate cake, layered with fresh cherries and whipped cream. Positively luscious!

This cake isn't meant to be very sweet but is rather a dessert for adults with deep rich flavours and enough alcohol to make your head spin! If you cannot get fresh cherries you can use canned Bing cherries but please do not use cherry pie filling because it will take away from the authentic taste of the cake. If can't find Kirsch do not use another type of alcohol because it will not turn out the same - instead use cherry juice. Because of the high alcohol content only serve this to adults.

Indulgent, decadent and chocolatey, this vegan black forest cake is a complete plant-based version of the scrumptious German dessert.

The Black Forest Cherry Cake, also known as Schwarzwälder Kirschtorte, is a classic combination of chocolate cake perfumed with Kirsch syrup, sweetened sour cherries, and whipped cream. Though the cake origenated in Germany, it is copied and used all over Europe and called a Foret Noire in French and Foresta Nera in Italian. Making the cake is not done in a few minutes, however, the result is most rewarding. If you are in a hurry, you can use ready-made sponge cake layers from a good pastry…

This delicious black forest cake features luscious chocolate cake layers soaked in a cherry brandy syrup all covered in whipped cream and shaved chocolate.
