1word1daySachertorte is a chocolate sponge cake covered with chocolate glaze and filled with apricot jam.
The apricot jam is either under the glaze or between two sponge layers.
The cake was invented by the Austrian confectioner Franz Sacher, either in 1832 for the Austrian chancellor Klemens von Metternich, or in the 1840s.
