I recently went to the local grocery store and bought a black forest cake. This is pretty unusual since I almost always bake my own desserts. However, I know that there’s a fair bit of effort involved in putting together one of these.<\/p>\n
The one I bought, though, wasn’t what I’d call traditional. For one thing, it had vanilla icing rather than chocolate. In the end, it didn’t taste much like what I remember having in the past. Plus, it wasn’t the most “classy” of cakes, so it had that artificial taste to it, unlike the more expensive ones (or those I bake myself) that taste “real”.
