Joffre cake



Joffre cake is a chocolate buttermilk layer cake filled with chocolate ganache and frosted with chocolate buttercream originally created at Bucharest's famed Casa Capşa restaurant, in honor of a visit by French General Joseph Joffre, shortly after World War I.
Some commentators say the size of the Joffre cake, probably had as a model the French casquet worn by soldiers during World War I.
