I don't mean to nitpick, but this is a genuine question. I always
thought sachertorte was by definition chocolate and apricot. If
raspberry is substituted, it's still delicious, but then is it still
sachertorte? Or just a chocolate-raspberry torte?
IOW, isn't it the apricot that makes sachertorte what it is?
