Contrary to popular belief, German chocolate cake did not originate in the country of Germany. Its roots can be traced back to 1852 when Englishman Sam German developed a brand of dark baking chocolate for the American Baker's Chocolate Company. The product, Baker's German's Sweet Chocolate, was named in honor of him. It is said that the original recipe in the US was actually sent to a local news paper my a Dallas, TX homemaker.
