Favorite low carb chocolate cake LCHF Sachertorte - keto Sacher torte

Sachertorte and Black Forest cake are my favorite cakes and European cake classics. On my blog you can find both cakes in delicious keto version. My keto Black Forest cake or keto Schwarzwald cake is one of the oldest and most loving recipes on my blog.

It's very strange that I decided to write this recipe just now and not before. However I make this cake very often but it was never a perfect time to publish.

First I had to prepare my homemade keto apricot jam. Because this cake doesn't work without apricot jam. Now you can find sugar free apricot jam in grocery stores but I had my homegrown apricots so it was just normal for me to prepare everything from the scratch.

Here you can find my delicious and super easy recipe for sugar free apricot jam. It's actually very low in carbs so it's worth to make it.

Gluten free & paleo Sacher cake

My Sacher torte is without flour, with blanched almond meal and with just a little bit of coconut flour. That's why it's gluten free and paleo. My family really love this cake. Even my family members who are not on keto really love this delicious keto chocolate cake.
