ザッハトルテ。
Demel’s cafe in Omotesando. I got really interested after reading potatomato’s post here. Of course I had to try Sachertorte, which err…turned out to be hard and dry and unbearably sweet….
アンナトルテ。 トラッフルトルテ。
Anna Torte: The Hazelnut and chocolate cream layer on top is again too sweet but the orange-flavour sponge cake is pretty nice.
Truffle Torte: This is the least sweet amongst the three we had ordered. Like my friend said, it is basically a giant truffle chocolate. ^^;; The chocolate sponge and ganache give it a soft texture which I quite like. Coffee is very nice too – very very bitter which is perfect to go with super sweet cakes.

Oh they have Demel in Tokyo! Yikes was it that bad?
I think in general I wasn’t a big fan of Sachertorte, but if it was well made I would enjoy it too. The vienna’s Demel ones was dry too.
I reckon Sachertorte is meant to be like that – sweet, hard, dry and old. ^^;; I am not saying it is bad, just not used to this kind of taste.
ひゃー ザッハトルテって凄まじく甘いですよね・・
あたくし、甘すぎると しょっぱく感じる味蕾(?)ゆえ
これはとてもしょっぱかったワ。 涙すら出てきた・・・・
ここのクッキーとかも凄まじいです。
猫チョコとか、箱はカワイイんですけれどねぇ~
(よく三越で引出物として搬出されてるのを見かけます)
いや~マジ甘かった!結局4分の1しか食べられなくて、ほとんど残しちゃった~
完食できたのはトラッフルトルテだけ!
The cakes already looked like they size down and refined for Japanese taste, but still..too sweet and lack of…complexity.. huh…^^;;
It is already quite big! I like the Truffle Torte though. Anna Torte is good too if you take off the top layer(the sweetest part). I really want to try “Esterhazytorte” but they don’t have it~~
