NATIONAL GERMAN CHOCOLATE CAKE DAY

On June 11 we celebrate the delicious food holiday known as National German Chocolate Cake Day! We can't think of a better way to learn about a cake with American roots and get our chocolate fix for the day at the same time!

Although the name may sound like the cake originated in Germany, German chocolate cake did not. In fact, the cake's roots can be traced back to 1852 when American Sam German made a type of dark baking chocolate for the American Baker’s Chocolate Company. Baker’s German Sweet Chocolate’s brand was named in honor of Sam German.

Over 100 years later in 1957, a recipe for “German’s Chocolate Cake” appeared as the Recipe of the Day in the Dallas Morning Star. This recipe, created by Mrs. George Clay, used Baker’s German’s Sweet Chocolate. Obviously, it became quite popular. During this time, General Foods owned Baker’s brand and distributed Mrs. Clay's recipe to other newspapers around the country. The current name of German Chocolate Cake, as we know it today, came to be as publications started dropping the 's.

We can't think of a better way to celebrate today's food holiday than enjoying a piece of German Chocolate Cake! Whether you make your own, buy one of the a local bakery, or indulge in one after dinner at a restaurant, eating this delicious dessert is a must! Don't forget to include a photo of your cake on social media using the hashtag #GermanChocolateCakeDay.
