Dobos torte (Hungarian: Dobos torta [ˈdoboʃ ˈtortɒ]), also known as Dobosh, is a Hungarian sponge cake layered with chocolate buttercream and topped with caramel.[1] The layered pastry is named after its inventor, Hungarian chef József C. Dobos, a delicatessen owner in Budapest.[2] In the late 1800s, he decided to create a cake that would last longer than other pastries in an age when cooling techniques were limited. The round sides of the cake are coated with ground hazelnuts, chestnuts, walnuts, or almonds, and the hardened caramel top helps to prevent drying out, for a longer shelf life.[1][3]
