Thank you

Hello Pat,

Sorry, I do not have and have not been able to locate a recipe for the German Chocolate Cake that was sold at Rich's.

I have a dedicated Rich's Department Store page here: Rich's Department Store

There are links on that page to all of the Rich's Bakeshop and Tearoom recipes that I have been able to find.

You should know that I have had contact with a former Rich's Bake Shop Holiday Manager who informed me that none of the cakes were actually baked in the Rich's stores. They were baked by Danco Bakery Distributors and delivered frozen to the individual stores. That multiplies the difficulty of ever finding any recipes for the cakes that were sold at Rich's.

I'll post this for reader input
