Answer 2

Yes, the German Chocolate Cake is nothing like the cake's of Germany. German's can't stand American cakes because we use to much sugar. Their cakes are usually layer cake. An 8" round cookie type wafer (graham) on the bottom with a flavored jelly spread thinly onto it. Then topped with a single layer 8" cake split in half. Usually there is a pudding type spread with a liqueur flavor added to it for aroma. Then they top off the pudding with the other half of the 8" cake. They use marzipan to seal it and then decorate it into a lovely thing that is very pleasing to the eye.

I ate a lot of cake in Germany.

Hi,
The Truth:
German Chocolate Cake (GCC) is not at all German? :) It originally comes from Dallas, Texas, and its name comes from the sweet chocolate baking bar, close in character to milk chocolate, developed for Baker's Chocolate Co. in 1852 by Sam German.
