"A royal chocolate slice from Vienna!"
The Sachertorte is Austria’s most iconic chocolate cake, created in 1832 by 16-year-old Franz Sacher for Prince Metternich of Vienna. The prince wanted something “special,” and Franz whipped up this rich chocolate cake with apricot jam and a shiny glaze — fit for royalty! Today, it’s a must-try in Vienna and a symbol of chocolate perfection.
