Black Forest Cake
A layered chocolate cake with cream and cherries, assembled tier by tier.
The recipe is the point here, and it is a real one: chocolate sponge split into layers, whipped cream and cherries between each, then cream, maraschino cherries and chocolate shavings on top. The game walks that sequence without shortcuts, which makes it one of the more instructive titles in this section.
Assembly is where it asks something of you. Layers can be stacked unevenly, cream can be spread too thin to hold the next tier, and the cherries will roll if the surface is not level — small consequences, but they mean the finished cake reflects how carefully you built it rather than which decorations you picked.
The decorating stage at the end is generous and untimed. Shaved chocolate is applied by hand around the sides, and getting an even coat there is the single hardest thing the game asks.

How to Play
- Mix and bake the chocolate sponge.
- Split it into layers once it has cooled.
- Spread cream and place cherries between each layer.
- Coat the outside and finish with shavings and whole cherries.
Tips & Tricks
Spread the cream to the edge of each layer, not just the middle. The sides get coated last, and a thin edge shows as a gap in the finished cake that no amount of chocolate hides.
