How Black forest cake is made
Black forest cake is made from chocolate sponge cake, sandwiched together along with cream layer and crushed cherries. But here, I haven’t used cherries in the making but only topped it. You can add crushed cherries if you want to make a traditional one.
You can also use chocolate ganache or chocolate shaving to make these pastries. traditionally choco shaving are used in this cake.
