Brits Discover German Chocolate Cake - No Way This Works !?!?!

BRITS DISCOVER "GERMAN" CHOCOLATE CAKE! | American Classic Made from Scratch by Mr & Mrs H | Elana Joins Taste Test

In this sweet and chocolatey episode, Mr. H and Mrs. H roll up their sleeves to recreate an iconic American dessert — the German Chocolate Cake — entirely from scratch, right here in the UK! And yes, little Miss Elana H joins in for the ultimate taste test at the end — her reaction is priceless!

But wait… is German Chocolate Cake actually from Germany? Nope! This rich, layered masterpiece is 100% American, named after Samuel German, a British-American chocolatier who developed a special type of dark baking chocolate for the Baker’s Chocolate Company back in 1852. The cake itself became popular in the 1950s when a Texas homemaker’s recipe using “German’s Sweet Chocolate” was published in a Dallas newspaper — and the rest is delicious history!

This decadent dessert features layers of moist chocolate cake filled and topped with a sweet coconut-pecan frosting that’s unlike anything else. It’s a Southern American favourite and a true comfort classic — but it’s rarely seen in British kitchens. That changes today!
