- Baking a Black Forest Cake requires a bit of work but the result is very well worth it!
This traditional and authentic recipe shows you step by step how to bake a German Black Forest Cake and decorate it.
First, bake the chocolate cake, then make the cream filling, add the cherry liquor to the cake layers, fill the cake between the layers with cherries and cream, lastly, decorate the cake in the traditional wey with chocolate shavings, cream and cherries.
Please don't mind the sound in the video. My microphone seems to be broken and sometimes creates static noises, so I had to switch to the backup microphone in some scenes.

Thank God for people like you who actually upload traditional recipes. I'm following your recipe for Christmas this year :)
How long did u put it in the microwave if u remember
Thank you for your wonderful tutorial, I made this Black Forest Kirsch torte for my husband's 73rd birthday. It's already a hit and we haven't even tasted it yet. So excited!
thank you for scraping the bowl so thoroughly i love when bakers do that in videos instead of leaving so much batter behind 🫣
Even if you don't see me scrapping a bowl like that, you can be sure I do it when the camera is off. I often cut the video there so people don't get bored but I never let any batter go to waste :-)
I hate that too, I lick my bowls completely clean lol!
@@asugarholicslifeYes gurl!!
I followed your exact instructions and it turned out very good. Even better the next day. Danke 🇨🇦
Most authentic I’ve seen on UA-cam. Kirsh makes it otherwise it’s just another cake! Thank you for sharing this wonderful recipe.
What if I don't have kirsh in my country, can you suggest any other non alcoholic alternative
@@mavishmazhar3024 I really can’t think of a non alcohol substitute for Kirschwasser. Keep in mind Kirsch is pungent not really sweet like some liqueurs or brandys.
@@mavishmazhar3024 you can leave it out, for even here in Germany not everyone likes it in there. But make sure you use sour cherries. Not the sweet ones. A few drops of bitter almond extract can somewhat imitate the Kirschwasser taste. But again, bitter almonds not the sweet ones!
What a gorgeous cake! Black Forest is my favorite. But you didn't need to put the 12 marks on top because in my opinion that whole cake is a single serving 😋
😂
LOL!
Yeah lol I planned on eating whole thing, I'll share if with family of course 😂
😂😂👍
😂😂😂😂
I love this cake. Have tried many recipes since coming to Germany 13 years ago. This is by far the BEST! My husband says "Nichts kommt näher ran". Thank you so much.🤗🙂
Wonderful!
This is the original recipe. Trust me. Thank you so much.
My pleasure 😊
A true labor of love. Enjoyed watching! 🍒
Ohhh My Goodness! This is my favourite cake. Thanks for the recipe.
What THANK YOU so very much. Been searching for an authentic recipe.
omg I love this channel!
I've never really liked most american style cakes because I grew up having german/austrian cakes for every event and birthday.
I'll definitely try to make some of these. A variation of black forest but made with raspberry is my absolute favourite, along with the austrian sachertorte.
This video helps so much! Thank you also for the conversions of measurements!
Thank you so so much for sharing this wonderful authentic German recipe so beautifully. I really wanted to learn it
and I’m so glad I found your channel. Here in the UK there are many versions of this recipe but nothing beats the real thing. Growing up in Croatia anything German was always the best and this cake was my family’s absolute favourite. You are a joy to watch and can’t wait to check out your other recipes. Thank you ♥️
Truly the best!
The cinnamon in the cherries is so underrated!!! I cannot wait to try!!!!
Thanks for detail step by step on how to make a german black forest cake. It's my favorite...
We love Black Forest Cake but your recipe shows the authentic German way. Absolutely gorgeous!!! ❤❤Love your recipe !

Really Best Black Forest Cake
Very clear description of the process. I can’t wait to try making it today.
Wow, I have been looking for authentic recipes for long time and found it at last. You are the best. This is simple to follow and your voice makes it such a nice experience to watch. Lovely.
This is exactly what I was looking for.. the Black Forest cake recipe with Kirsch in it. I baked one for Christmas and I'm sure kirsch did make a difference in the flavor. Thanks for sharing!
Excellent video. So beautifully executed, with the instructions and visuals so clear and calm PLUS the Best cake imaginable - gets better as the days go by. Danke.
Best reciepe on Schwarzälder Kirschtorte ever. Thanks for sharing.
Very beautiful cake! I’m sure it’s delicious as well. Thank you for sharing your recipe.
I had made this delicious cake when I was younger. Everything was the same except we had melted chocolate over the cherries in the middle layer and cooled it in the frig. for about a hour or so when the chocolate was set up enough and brought the cake back out to finish the third layer with cherries and whip cream.
Everyone raved about and still do to this day. I had made it a couple of times now as an adult and still get that was the best cake I had ever eaten. Making this beauty is a labor of love. I only make it for special occasions.
I can now understand what a labour 29:34 of love this is!❤️❤️❤️
Wow...now I can appreciate why this cake is so special... looks amazing...but I bet it tastes better than that! I’ve had it before but never knew what was involved... That’s a work of ART! I hope some very special people got to eat yours 😊
What a fantastic and mammoth effort! Black forest is my favourite cake with the sour and sweet and chocolatey fluffiness of the sponge. Delish! 💕
I grew up with this cake. My Oma made it quite frequently. It is my absolute favorite dessert. Tastes like love.
Beautiful!
Oh wow this is wonderful and I love Black Forest cake 😍 thank you for sharing
Clear and precise. Exactly how I made using a slightly different recipe. This looks much better and will use it next time.
I love the way you show the whole preparation!! Lovely
Thank you so much 😊
I baked 2 cakes on Tuesday and put into the freezer. Did the first part of one cake on Wed night, then the final part on Thursday lunchtime, for a Thursday night dinner party. Then got the second cake ready for a baby shower on Saturday. Both cakes were just amazing and I had so many comments about how fresh and nice it tasted. A few comments were how much better it tasted than store bought ones. So now, I am very happy, so thank you Barbara x
What a beautiful cake! I'm going to make this for Chrismas. Thank you!
I can't wait to try your recipe. I Love your show.
I made this cake for my mother-in-law's 94th birthday lunch yestereday and it was a great success. I very rarely make cakes and enjoy the challenge of making new desserts when entertaining. Thanks for your very clear instructions. I was extremely pleased with the results. I take this opportunity to wish you and all a very happy Christmas and New Year.
I agree with you, definitely two layers! My favourite cake!
I meant three layers!
The cake is very aesthetic and cool, thank you for the video and the work done
Black Forest is my very favorite, but I have never made it myself. With your instructions, I might just have to try it! Your cake is stunning!
WONDERFUL!!!
Thank you!
How wonderful thank you very much.
Lecker Lecker !! Wunderbaren kuchen!
Thank God for this recipe! I grew up with this cake, with alcohol of course. 😍
Excellent video, so many tips and a lot of advice, from chilling the cake before cooking to advice on gelatine. I will make this a couple of days before christmas.
Dem Himmel sei Dank! Außerhalb Deutschlands nehmen die alle Süßkirschen. Danke, dass du extra auf die Sauerkirschen hingewiesen hast ❤️
Love it, I used your pretzel recipe. I will try this next.

Just purchased all the ingredients to make this cake all I'm waiting for is the cake ring.. even have my kirschwasser!!!! Watching this video over and over and over just to make sure I have my setting ready and tools ready. Thank you for posting this video!
Sounds like you are well prepared! Ave fun with the baking 👍
Beautiful! I have a co-worker from Germany and he was saying how he would love an authentic piece of black forest cake. Now I know how to make it. Thank you
How nice of you to bake for him!
@@MyGermanRecipes He and his wife loved it. Thank you so much . He said it reminded him of his mothers cake
Wonderful.
My husband requested this for his birthday, just ordered the extra supplies I need. Thank you for the video!
Hey! I’m making this for my husbands birthday, what kind of alcohol did you use if any? 🧡🙂
Very pretty cake 🎂 thank you I really want to make it 😀
Such a pretty cake. Looks delicious. Lots of work!
... but totally worth the work 😁
This is my favorite cake!! I followed your instructions and the result was amazing. Thank you for sharing it with us.
I am making it for Christmas, the cherry mixture is cooking now. I hope it will be ok in the fridge for 2 days.
I agree this is a very authentic recipe and done very well! Thank you and frohe Weihnachten!
The alcohol in the cake will probably have disappeared after a day. Try to cover it with something, so it might be prevented … or use some more Kirschwasser. Frohe Weihnachten 🎄
I have kirsch that I use for my cheese fondue, I will certainly try to do this , Danke Frau
2 am in the night, in the heart of the Schwarzwald and craving this!
Regards from Freiburg im Breisgau
Oh, I hope you were able to get a slice in the morning at a bakery!
This cake is my all time favourite cake and it's been years since I had a piece. You can't get this in Australia. Definitely going to try it out. Oh yes you were right by the way. The more liquid cake mix is a batter and the thicker mixes like for bread is dough. I saw youtube once where they had a couple of lengths of thin wood like chopsticks but a bit thicker that they arranged at the sides of the cake at the height they wanted to cut it. They used this as a guide to make it easier to cut the cake to the height they wanted it. .
So beautiful cake. 👍👍👍
I followed your Black forest cake recipe, I made for my husband's birthday. It was so amazing! Thank you!
This is very delish. Makes my mouth water!! I take "Sahnesteif" instead of the gelatine. Works as well. ❤
I'm in Crete in Greece and can't find Kirsch but have learned to make it myself, that was a fantastic lesson on how to make the tastiest cake in the world (in my opinion) and keeping it traditional, thank you very much.
Greetings to Crete! I have been to Crete three times in my life, I love it there!
this has to be the best Black Forest Cake. I would love to make it for a bake sale!
I used to love it when my mom made this when I was a kid.
Thank you so much, this is an amazing recipe! I love your energy. Cake potion😍 You just got a new subscriber:)
It looks absolutely delicious…👏👏👏
Thank you 😋
I made this cake for my daughter in law’s birthday following your video step by step and it was delicious. Everyone enjoyed it. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. 🙏👏👏🙏
Very nice it has my mouth watering I'm definitely making three for Christmas. Two for my friends and one for just me no sharing. I lived in Scheinfurt for six years growing up my heart yearns to return to Germany. Black forest cake was a tradition at Christmas day dinner it was my favorite out of the many desert selections we had on Christmas day. Thanks for sharing this recipe it's the best one I have seen .
Thank you for making this video. I hope I can make it. I haven't baked in over 30 years since I was 10 baking with my Oma she had us call her Omi it did not sound so old.
Mmmmm perfect 🎉
I made this cake according to your instructions. It was such a success!!! Next time I will make more syrup for the layers. I was a little concerned about the amount of kirschwasser, but now I see it wasn’t too much. The cake turned out to be light and not too sweet, just like I wanted. Danke!!!❤
Wonderful! 👍
That cake looks amazing!! I will try it this week. 😊
Happy Baking!!
Wow this cake looks absolutely amazing. Cherries aren't my husband's favorite but I'm sure he would love this cake. You have totally inspired me to make this. Thank you. I love your channel!
My husband isn‘t fond of cherries, too, but in this cake he doesn‘t mind. Hope it’s the same for your husband.
@@MyGermanRecipes Yes I'm sure he would be fine with them. I have decided to make your Donauwellen cake first. I just bought all the ingredients and am waiting for the pan from Amazon which should be arriving today.
Thank you sweetheart
Hi Barbara, I made this yesterday, followed your steps word by word , and the cake turned out so good, that even I can say so myself. Thank you for sharing the recipe. And yes, I agree , it very very useful to start the cake a day before you plan to serve/eat ... a lot of patience/time goes into it. thanks again.
Wonderful! Thank you for your feedback ❤️
I used to get my kirsh wasser kirsch torte from my German baker but he used Bavaria cream instead of you recipe. He also made Beehive cake . So good!!
Interesting to hear!! 🎉
Vielen Dank
Thank you SO much for this. My husband is from Germany and the Schwarzwälder Kirschtorte is something he really misses, along with good bread. We've ordered "Black Forest Cakes" from local bakers, but it's always just a typical American style chocolate cake with disturbingly sweet icing and some cherries on top. I read that dutch processed cocoa is key and I also ordered some expensive cherries soaked in brandy from france. The cake is now made and is marinating. I'm looking forward to trying it tomorrow. The entire process would likely have been a great cataclysm if I didn't stumble upon your extremely helpful video. Again, thank you!
How did it turn out?
Wow! echtes Kirschtorte aus dem Schwarzwald
From a German-Canadian in Canada, Hut ab!
Thank you!
Bravo! A lot of work, but certainly worth it. I shall make one (or, at least attempt to) for my next supper-party.👍🏻
It looks spectacular. A Black Forest cake was a stable favourite at birthdays when I was growing up! Such a treat. I would like to suggest when "curling" or scraping the slab of chocolate with a knife to get the shavings, you can use a potato peeler instead directing the peeler on the side of the chocolate bar. It gives lovely swirls or shavings too👍🏻🙂
Thank u so 4 zs delicious recipe. We can feel u put everything in yr heart 2 do it.
Am busy wz it : cake baked, need 2 b cut, creamed and decorated 4 z last step which is 2 devore it 4 Shabbat 😂😊😋.
Greetings from Spain.
Very impressive ❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉
Thank you! 😊
Black Forest cake has always been my favourite cake. I used to ask for it on every birthday. The kirsch makes a huge difference so i suggest to never avoid it
Nice
Oh, I love Schwarzwälder. You can find one of the cake cutter levelers on Amazon. I bought one by Wilton. Thanks for sharing your recipe. Liebe Grüße, Sabrina
Omg !! I love your channel and wanted to make my mom a Schwarzwälder a month ago. I couldn't find a good recipe and was sad you didn't have one. I use your Bienenstich recipe. Now I looked and you are in my search!!!!! So happy 🥰🥰🥰 Danke ❤️
Wonderful! Enjoy the baking.
My German Recipes I followed the recipe and my cake didn't rise 😞 going to try this again .
So sorry to hear. It is very important to beat the eggs long enough like 20 minutes. Also, make sure the baking powder is mixed with the four and when you add the dry ingredients, make sure to be very careful. The air in the eggs must stay in there to only fold the dry ingredients in. I hope this time it will work! ❤️
My German Recipes thank you for the tips. So I rewatched your video. I noticed I sifted my dry ingredients and you didn't. I am so used to sifting that i just did it! Immediately on the second batch, I didn't sift & I noticed a big difference in my dry ingredients and how my mixture mixed together. 25 minutes until I know how I did. 🤞🏼 fingers crossed the cake rises this time 😍
How did it go this time?
I just came back from bavarria this was my absolute favorite treat there. Beautiful job!
Awesome! Thank you!
Excellent! I have been longing for a genuine Black Forest Cake..you have done an amazing job in showing us how to make this gem..Can't skip the Kirschwasser!
