Blackforest cake

[SuY]

Husband's birthday coming up. He loves blackforest cake. Any ideas where to order from? Tried from Veniero's several years back and was disappointed. Any other ideas?

You might want to call these guys and see if they do a blackforest -

their buttercream frosting is INSANE similar to magnolias

See if Cafe Sabarsky (run by the Walsee group) can do it. Or Ceci-Cela (their mini version is okay). Thirty years ago there wouldn't have been any problem. Sigh.

Why is Blackforest so rare nowadays?

There used to be a bakery called "steinway bakery" or something like that in Astoria (Queens). Their blackforrest was the best I have had in the US. Don't know if it is still there.

You could also make your own:

Maybe Ruthy's at Chelsea Market makes them.
