How long does a sacher torte keep

Switch to a whisk or whisk attachment, if you have one and beat in the egg yolks one at a time to the butter mix, whisking to make sure each one is well incorporated before adding the next. Add the melted chocolate and whisk until well combined. Beat in a third of the egg white to loosen the mixture, then gently fold in the rest with a large spoon.

Finally, sift over the dry ingredients, then gently fold in until the mixture is evenly coloured and no pockets of flour remain. Carefully tip the batter into the prepared tin and gently level out the top.

Bake for minutes, or until a skewer comes out clean if you have a thermometer, the internal temperature should be about 99C , remove and leave to sit in the tin for 10 minutes, then the cake on to a cooling rack. Meanwhile, make the rum syrup. Combine the sugar with ml water and bring to a boil, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Take off the heat, stir in the rum, leave to cool slightly, then brush over the cake and leave to cool completely. Gently heat the jam until runny, then sieve it, if necessary, to remove any solid pieces of fruit.

Spread a third of the apricot jam over the base of the cake, replace the top half, and spread the rest of the jam over that and the sides of the cake. Leave to set for a couple of hours. Leave to set completely, preferably overnight, then serve with whipped cream, though if truth be told, this cake is best eaten after a couple of days.

I think that you should put the kettle on, make some tea and then cut up that cake and share it here with all of your VT friends.

No point in letting it go to waste. I'd be most willing to share. Ironically, I'm not much of a dessert-eater, but this thing does smell yummy. You can see pix at [original link]. I note that my kind gift-giver paid Euro 34, plus shipping for it, so it is a valuable commodity that should not be wasted! Very good point, Kathrin. I just examined that pretty box more carefully, and at the far back of it is a little sticker that says in German, "Good until Jan.

Thank you for pointing this out. I guess I just leave the cake in a cool place until my get-together, and hope for the best. I'm surprised it would last that long Sorry, Ricky, no sharing!

Maybe next time!
