Can anyone provide any information about a German cake known as the 'Anne of Cleves Cake'? Apparently it is known in German as 'Ana von Kleve Torte'. There has been a lot of buzz about it since a television historian was shown eating a slice while introducing a BBC series on the six wives of Henry VIII. I've been asked as a reference librarian to find a recipe, or at least a description of the cake. No type of web or database search I have tried has yielded anything! The German cookbooks I have access to do not mention it either. So I would be very grateful, on behalf of all the (mostly) ladies clamoring for this cake, if anyone could supply any information at all about it! Thank you! -Jennifer Miller, Librarian
