This is a recipe handed down from my mother, it is a family favorite requested at all gatherings and pot lucks.
Peach Graham Upside Down Torte
This cake is different twist on the usual pineapple upside down cake. It is a wonderful cake served anytime, everyone will love it.
Sacher Torte
This is pretty darn close to the original classic dessert produced by the Sacher Hotel in Vienna, Austria. It is a dense, not-too-sweet, apricot and chocolate concoction. It is a lot of work but WELL worth the effort!

Based on the Hungarian Dobos torte (pronounced Do-bash), this cake was developed in New Orleans and is now a staple throughout Louisiana. It’s my husband’s all-time favorite and has become a birthday tradition.
Chocoberry Torte
The flavors of strawberries and chocolate mingle together in this lovely dessert. This is an easy to make sweet torte. You may increase the amount of fruit to your liking. Raspberries or blueberries are awesome additions to this delicious torte.
Sachertorte
This German cake recipe makes an icing with apricot preserves to deliver an elegant chocolate cake.
Sour Cream Torte
This torte is legendary at work; one time it caused a near riot and disappeared in 5 minutes! It’s very unusual and tastes like those small butter/nut cookies rolled in powdered sugar. It’s not hard to make, it just takes some time, but I guarantee it’s worth it!
Rhubarb Torte
An excellent dessert for after a hearty meal. I have also made the filling with raspberries, strawberries and blueberries, separately or mixed them together for a bumbleberry torte!
Dobos Torte
The word ‘dobos’ means ‘like a drum’ in Hungarian. However, this cake is named after its creator, Hungarian pastry chef Josef Dobos.
Raspberry Walnut Torte
A very dense, decadent cake that always gets raves from friends and family. You can substitute other nuts for the walnuts and different preserves if desired.
Galette des Rois
This is a popular French cake that celebrates the holiday of Epiphany (January 6th) the day when the Three Kings visited the Baby Jesus. As part of French tradition, a bean or small china feve (favor) is hidden in the cake. The person who finds the feve in his or her slice becomes king or queen for the day. The person can also choose someone to be their king or queen and can lead the traditional dance.
Fourteen Layer Chocolate Cake
Fourteen very thin layers with chocolate between each layer. Hope you enjoy this! I am from Georgia and make it all the time for church functions and family reunions.
French Chocolate Cake
This is typical of a French homemade cake – dense, dark, and delicious. It is a European sponge cake, with a different texture than its American counterparts. It is excellent dusted with confectioners’ sugar and served with lightly sweetened whipped cream or a fruit coulis.

Garnish with a sprinkle of sugar and some strawberries! The center will be a little fudgy tasting! There are never any leftovers to worry about.
