We have also found a reference to a Victorian-era cake called a Chocolate Bismarck in a re-printed book -The Victorian Book of Cakes by T. Percy Lewis, Portland House, New York, 1991. This individual cake is made up of a Génoise (spelled Genoese in the book), chocolate meringue, melted chocolate and chocolate fondant, decorated with crystallized violets.
