Is green mold on the cake a reason to throw it away? Not so with moss cake, which makes it the perfect Halloween recipe.

Halloween is not far away. Already have all the snacks and recipes for the spooky party? If not, here’s a great idea: mousse cake. The classic cake comes from the East German era, and admittedly it looks a bit unusual: a white layer with green specks culminating on a chocolate base. Reminds of mold? But it tastes great! And precisely because of its appearance, moss cake is perfect for that Halloween-Schlemmerbüfett. Especially people who don’t know moss cake will be a little anxious to ask if this should really be the case and if you can eat cake. You can then explain to the skeptics: The green color is formed from the reaction between the chlorogenic acid in the sprinkled coffee powder and the protein in the top layer. So the cake is not moldy, it should look like this. You’ve baked a delicious and juicy moss cake in no time. Here’s the cake recipe.
