Sacher-Torte at Sacher Confiserie (Vienna, Austria) I always try to eat something fresh and healthy for breakfast since it's the first meal of the day. English breakfast and various bakeries can be found in any city. Taking an early morning stroll in Vienna, while seeking my american breakfast, I came upon a sweet chocolately scent. I followed the scent to a crowd of people gathered in front of a window, and others entering and leaving the Sacher Hotel. The famed Sacher Hotel is probably best known for creating the original Sacher-Torte. Claimed to be the most famous cake in the world since 1832 this sweet treat has a base of chocolate cake thinly coated with apricot jam, and crowned with chocolate icing. Even though it was breakfast time, I still treated myself to an individual torte - it was awesome. The Sacher-Torte is the crown jewel of Vienna. Company website: www.sacher.com |
