Examples

“I would like to state some facts about Dobos torten (never Dobosch, as the s is pronounced sh in Hungarian) and Sacher torten (by the way, the plural for torte is torten, not tortes as you state.) […] A Dobos Torte should always have nine layers, although most American cookbooks encourage six, probably due to the fact that it is a nuisance and very time consuming to bake nine very thin layers.”
“Finally Mickey took pictures of Cica, Taggy, Puppo and Lurko eating Dobos torte (six thin layers of cake filled with chocolate cream topped with a caramel crust), on the terrace of the Intercontinental Hotel.”
