So why is this answer correct? : This delicious chocolate cake topped with a coconut-pecan frosting might sound like an invention from Germany, but it was actually conceived in the kitchen of Mrs. George Clay of Dallas, Texas. She named her creation “German’s Chocolate Cake” because she used Baker’s German’s Sweet Chocolate to flavor her batter. After her recipe appeared in “The Dallas Morning News” in 1957, Baker’s Chocolate experienced a 73% increase in annual sales.
