The original Sacher-Torte is the most famous Austrian cake. It is a classic, layered chocolate sponge cake that is thinly coated with high-quality apricot jam and topped with chocolate icing. Sacher-Torte is said to taste the best when accompanied by a small cloud of unsweetened whipped cream on the side. It was invented in 1832 by Franz Sacher, a pastry chef for Prince Clemens Lothar Wensel Metternich, the State Chancellor of Austria at the time. The prince wanted a new cake, and Sacher, 16 years old at the time, obliged him by creating something new from ingredients that were readily available in the kitchen. Have you eaten Sachertorte?

Dobos Torte was first created in 1884 in the Austro-Hungarian Empire. The Dobos Torte, a famous layered cake, was created by József C. Dobos in Budapest. It debuted at the National General Exhibition in 1885 and quickly gained popularity, even attracting Emperor Franz Joseph I and Empress Elisabeth. Dobos donated his recipe to the Pastry and Honey-Makers' Guild in 1906 to prevent imitations. Today it is known as a favorite in Hungary can still be found in parts of Austria.
