In small popular restaurants are famous desserts of the Colonia, such as strudels, gugelhupf, cakes and churros and / or meat with cream, the traditionals Kaiserschmarrn, Germknödel, Apfelstrudel and Schwarzwälder Kirschtorte, known in English such as Black Forest cake, along with charcuterie and specialties including the famous German sausages.

It is used in traditional German Schwarzwälder Kirschtorte ( Black Forest cake, which is believed to have originated in the 16th century ) and in other cakes — for example in Gugelhupf cake.

Black Forest gâteau ( British English ) and Black Forest cake ( American English and Australian English ) are the English names for the German dessert Schwarzwälder Kirschtorte (), literally " Black Forest cherry torte ".

German statutory interpretation states Kirschwasser as a mandatory ingredient, otherwise the cake is legally not allowed to be marketed as Schwarzwälder Kirschtorte.

The confectioner Josef Keller ( 1887 – 1981 ) claimed to have invented Schwarzwälder Kirschtorte in its present form in 1915 at the then prominent Café Agner in Bad Godesberg, now a suburb of Bonn about 500 km north of the Black Forest.

Schwarzwälder Kirschtorte was first mentioned in writing in 1934.

In 1949 it took 13th place in a list of best-known German cakes, and since that time Schwarzwälder Kirschtorte has become world-renowned.

The first is from Father Franz Steyrer, written in his " Geschichte der Schwarzwälder Uhrmacherkunst " ( History of Clockmaking in the Black Forest ) in 1796.

With regard to this chronicle, the historian Adolf Kistner claimed in his book " Die Schwarzwälder Uhr " ( The Black Forest Clock ) published in 1927, that there is not any Bohemian cuckoo clock in existence to verify the thesis that this clock was used as a sample to copy and produce Black Forest cuckoo clocks.

That year he published Schwarzwälder Dorfgeschichten ( Black Forest Village Stories ; 1843 ) which was his first great success, widely translated, and expressing with a sympathetic realism the memories and scenes of youth.

The cake is named not directly after the Black Forest ( Schwarzwald ) mountain range in southwestern Germany but rather from the specialty liquor of that region, known as Schwarzwälder Kirsch ( wasser ) and distilled from tart cherries.

Many of the hills are no higher than 400 m. There are several chains of higher peaks within the Hunsrück, all bearing names on their own: the ( Schwarzwälder ) Hochwald, the Idarwald, the Soonwald, and the Binger Wald.

The Black Forest (, ) is a wooded mountain range in Baden-Württemberg, southwestern Germany.

The name Schwarzwald ( German for " Black Forest ") derives from the Romans who referred to the thickly forested mountains there as Silva Nigra ( Latin for " Black Forest ") because the dense growth of conifers in the forest blocked out most of the light inside the forest.

The Black Forest consists of a cover of sandstone on top of a core of gneiss and granites.

During the last glacial period of the Würm glaciation, the Black Forest was covered by glaciers ; several tarns ( or lakes ) such as the Mummelsee are remains of this period.

Rivers in the Black Forest include the Danube ( which originates in the Black Forest as the confluence of the Brigach and Breg rivers ), the Enz, the Kinzig, the Murg, the Nagold, the Neckar, the Rench, and the Wiese.

The Black Forest is part of the continental divide between the Atlantic Ocean drainage basin ( drained by the Rhine ) and the Black Sea drainage basin ( drained by the Danube ).
