Schloss Bäckerei: Schwarzwälder Kirschtorte

I overdid it this weekend, I guess, walking not running, though there should have been more eating yesterday before the walking, I think. Also more sleep would be good. Anyway, today's cake was to prevent unhealthy running rather than reward running.

This was a third cake from Schloss Bäckerei, the Schwarzwälder Kirschtorte. I generally avoid Black Forest cake but figured that this was the most cake-like thing they had, according to my definition, and were the appropriate place to get this type of cake. And I was correct about the latter, as this was excellent (though I might not be in the best state to judge). Rather than soft sponge, the biscuit was almost crisp, as I like in order to contrast with soft whipped cream. Also, the cherry was good, not being too tart. Not very chocolaty, but more chocolate would have submerged the other tastes and created a different cake that I probably would not have liked much.

So I'm satisfied that this is a Quite Good shop, down in Hiroo, that I've sufficiently sampled for now.
