Black Forest Cake

Today is National Black Forest Cake Day! I’ve got 15 delectable Black Forest Cake-Inspired recipes to share with you, so you can celebrate with a delicious treat! Black Forest Cake is the English name for the German dessert Schwarzwalder Kirschtorte, meaning “Black Forest cherry torte.”

Typically, this cake is made from a chocolate sponge cake with layers of morello cherries or cherry jam and whipped cream and topped with chocolate icing. There are many variations of this cake, and I’m sharing 15 different recipes including two gluten-free versions for you to try! I’ve got a vegetarian version and a skinny smoothie inspired by this delectable dessert too.
