Class Description

Try saying “Schwarzwälder Kirschtorte” three times fast. Known for its sour cherries and kirschwasser (Cherry Brandy), this regional specialty from the Black Forest region of Germany is one of the country’s most well-known desserts. In class, we will not only tackle baking and decorating this decadent dessert, but we’ll also infuse our own cherries with Brandy to add that authentic flavor of the Black Forest Cake. Have you wanted to learn how to work with chocolate? In class, Chef Nate will show you 3 separate chocolate tempering/working techniques to add that extra “je ne sais quoi” to your Black Forest Cake. During class, each student will build their own Black Forest Cake that serves 8-10 people to take home.

Please Note: This is a technical class. This class is not recommended for your first TFK Cooking Class or if you have no baking experience.

A brand new class from Chef Nate, our newest Pastry and Baking Chef Instructor! He has worked at the Broadmoor for the past 18 years and is eager to share his passion and knowledge with you!
