    "As a German woman, it breaks my heart to see all of these 'black forest cakes' in North America made with sickeningly sweet icing and gross cherry pie filling.This cake isn't meant to be very sweet but is rather a dessert for adults with deep rich flavours and enough alcohol to make your head spin! If you cannot get fresh cherries you can use canned..."

    "This makes a small cake that is big on taste. The secret is the lemon juice in the batter and a strong Vietnamese cinnamon. The recipe doubles easily and may be made in a lasagna pan. The apples may be substituted with cherries. Good for after meals, it's also great as a cinnamon breakfast pastry with some coffee. This is adapted from a children's..."

    "The characteristic rings that appear when sliced resemble tree rings, and give the cake its German name, Baum kuchen, which literally translates to tree cake. I made this years ago getting the recipe from bon appetit. All ingredients should be room temperature. This is a dense, rich cake so be sure to slice thin. You can always go back for seconds. Optional: Crushed..."

    "This cake is actually known as Zwetschgendatschi in Bavaria, where it is most popular. Roughly translated from Bavarian to German, it would be called Pflaumenkuchen or plum cake in English. BUT Zwetschgen aren't ordinary plums, a Datschi isn't really a Kuchen, and a Kuchen is most definitely not a cake! Or at least not a tall, spongy cake -- it's flatter...."
