JENNR8R 0 #77 June 28, 2006 QuoteQuoteUpside Down German Chocolate Cake Thank You... Did you know that German Chocolate has nothing to do with Germany? The chocolate took its name from an American with the last name of "German." In 1852, Sam German created the mild dark baking chocolate bar for Baker's Chocolate Co. The product was named in his honor - "Baker's German's Sweet Chocolate." In most recipes and products today, the apostrophe and the "s" have been dropped, thus giving the false hint as for the chocolate's origin. The first published recipe for German's chocolate cake showed up in a Dallas newspaper in 1957 and came from a Texas homemaker.What do you call a beautiful, sunny day that comes after two cloudy, rainy ones? -- Monday.
