Hi Bold Bakers! My Classic Austrian Sacher Torte Recipe is an easy and impressive cake recipe to make and enjoy. Get the RECIPE 🍰: www.biggerbolderbaking.com/austrian-sacher-torte-recipe/
Don't like to correct people but appreciate it when others do that for me... so here goes: Sacher is not pronounced as Sasher, but closer to Zakker. The ch is pronounced as though you are clearing the back of your mouth (ready to spit, so to speak). The S either sounds like an S or a Z depending the region. Sorry for that image. To hear it, just Google search: How to Pronounce ''Sachertorte'' Correctly in German
yummm i do love an austrian cake. had a austrian executive chef many years ago who loved to do a bit of baking on the side. his cakes were stupendous! it would appear that most austrian cakes he made didn't require flour, or very little. his almond flour cake with a custard based icing was the best thing i have ever had. that cake was still as fresh and tasty after a week as when made.
I agree with you. The Austrians have quite a good arsenal of baking recipes that are exceptionally delicious. Almost everything is fit for a king! Thanks for sharing this here today 😊
Cant wait to make this soon for me i love chocolate sooooooooo much i never had classic austrian sacher torte before perfect for my after office snacks
Thanks Gemma for bringing such sweet memories to my mind! My brother and I would borough over and over the same book at the local library: it was a book talking about each country of Europe (and another one of the series about world wide cultures) through cooking, singing lullabies and celebrating holidays. We absolutely loved the austrian double-page and were starving in front of the Sachertorte, strudël and other delights. To this day, I wonder what is the original recipe 😅 (according to this book, they keep it secret).
I'm a big fan of chocolate,I made many chocolate desserts but I've never made Austrian torte before. Definitely have to give this a try !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!🍫🍰🎂
Looks amazing! I need to make this for my chocoholic grandson’s birthday. I love apricots, and was very lucky that we had an apricot tree when I was a kid… my mama always made a bunch of apricot-pineapple jam, and it’s the best, especially with peanut butter!🤤❤️
Hi Gemma! The idea of whipping the egg whites separately is a good idea. In tasting Sacher cakes from different bakeries in Vienna, I have never seen one with a rounded top. The cake is usually flipped to cool after baking, then a fine jam is brushed on to set overnight. The next day the process continues with/without filling and a perfect chocolate "Ganache" is applied. I received my recipe from an Austrian lady; the original cake is indeed time-consuming.
It is smooth. Use a scraper in smoothing out the surface for a much better finish. I don't do much decorating and usually go for the rustic look, hence I don't really have all the tools most pros use for cake decorating. The flavor however is really good. I hope you get on well with making your son's wedding cake using this recipe, www.biggerbolderbaking.com/austrian-sacher-torte-recipe/
I love it. I love you content for many reasons, but it first caught my attention because you would mention Fahrenheit and Celsius and often share what you can supplement ingredients with if you can’t them in your country. With my husband coming from the US and me from Austria we use a lot of different recipes. We live in Austria though, and we can’t get everything. Although we can a lot more now than 10 years ago, I still really appreciate your respect and understanding for different countries counties.❤
I had one of these in Vienna and ate so much...in fact...I had two of them! They were so rich, I was awake for a week!!! 🤣🤣🤣 They are de-li-cious😍 I still have the boxes they were sold in 35 years ago. Great job. Easier than I thought.
@@biggerbolderbaking Fantastic...thank you so much. This brings back such a wonderful memory for me. We had been at the Opera and then went to the Hotel Sacher for 'dessert' and champagne. How decadent...those were the days!! Really neat! Thank you again and I'll attempt to recreate your beautiful torte. 🥮
I looked back at the video and she did say that. I clicked on the link to get the recipe and they used all the egg whites before adding the flour. Problem solved! Blessings to you!
Hi. With a metal spoon, gently fold in ⅓ of the whipped egg whites into the chocolate mixture to lighten the batter before folding in the remaining whites. Lastly add the cake flour in 2 additions, mixing just until combined. Hope this helps.
@@biggerbolderbaking Thank you. I do like to bake----have since I was a kid (and I'm OLD!). I really enjoy watching your videos. Everything always looks so good. God bless you!!
Hi Gemma. This looks wonderful & I have everything to make it. I don't, however, like or have, any Rum. Is it necessary, & can I just use the apricot jam without it? Would I still need to cook down the jam?
Thank you so much for sharing your great and unique recipe. It's very good very delicious very tasty and yummy. Your all recipes are unique and fantastic..Weldone ❤🧡💕👍.Your all talents and cooking/baking skills are outstanding you are the adorable cutest sweetest prettiest innocent face gorgeous woman. Looking like the stunningly beautiful fairytale dreams princess Cinderella in the kitchen. You are a wonderful innocent cute God's given very special very pretty very talented very beautiful gorgeous woman with a very impressive voice, stunning smile and mesmerising personality. May God bless you with the best because you are the bestst among all the best, Stay blessed 🎉😊😊❤🧡
Gemma, your torte is just gorgeous and looks positively decadent!! I also wanted to share with you that I recently followed your banana bread recipe (after also watching your video about how NOT to make banana bread), and, after 20 years of truly terrible banana bread results (most inedible!) that I had blamed on having an electric stove here when I had previously only used gas, I had my first success!!! Following your recipe, my banana bread was moist, rose beautifully, and tasted so good!! I hadn't even tried to make it in probably five years, and I really wasn't expecting a different result than all my prior attempts, but your recipe and the cautions about what not to do produced a PERFECT light, tasty, moist bread!! Thank you for helping me overcome my reluctance to bake because I erroneously felt my stove was ruining my results!! It wasn't my stove at all; it was inferior recipes and my own shortcuts that were my undoing!! You are awesome!!! ❤❤❤
Hi. Because eggs, both the yolk and whipped egg whites, are essential to the flavor and texture of this traditional recipe, I wouldn’t recommend making Sacher Torte without eggs. For a chocolate cake with no eggs, a moist texture, and great flavor, please give our Vegan Chocolate Cake www.biggerbolderbaking.com/vegan-chocolate-cake-recipe/ a go! I think you’ll love it.

I looked back at the video and she did say that. I clicked on the link to get the recipe and they used all the egg whites before adding the flour. Problem solved! Blessings to you!

You can leave it out if it is not a preference. Without the rum, there would be no need to cook it further. Hope this helps.

I have Austrian Inlander rum, it's very strong, would it be suitable for this cake?
I haven't tried it, but I think it can work in this cake. Check the recipe here, www.biggerbolderbaking.com/austrian-sacher-torte-recipe/
