Baumkuchen
Baumkuchen is a traditional German cake that dedicated bakers have been crafting for several centuries. The name literally translated into English means "tree cake," a reference to the thin layers that are visible when the cake is sliced. True baumkuchen is extremely labor-intensive, and requires special equipment to prepare.
Rather than being simply placed in a pan, a baumkuchen is baked on a spit over a heat source. Bakers drip the cake batter onto the spit, where it turns and allows the cake to cook slowly and evenly. Once the layer has turned to a golden brown color, another layer of batter is brushed on top of that. The process repeats until the cake is finished, when it is covered with chocolate, marmalade, sugar, or glaze. Creating a baumkuchen in the traditional manner takes skill and practice.
