Franz Sacher
Franz Sacher (1816 - 1907) was a baker famous for his cake called "Sachertorte".
The Lord of Metternich ordered his bakery to create a fine dessert for the Royals and their guests. "Dass Er mir aber keine Schand’ macht, heut Abend!" he said ("For ye shall not bring shame on me tonight!"). Franz Sacher, in his second year of learning Bakery, created this tremendous chocolate-cake because the chef was ill and it had to be finished that evening of order in the year 1832.
In 1876 Franz's son, Eduard Sacher, opened the famous Hotel Sacher in Vienna, near the great Opera of Vienna.
