So what color is it?

... just curious. --Trovatore (talk) 08:41, 26 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

...and more to the point, is it really called "blue cake" in English?

As a general rule, these sorts of regional specialty foods are not translated in English. If (as I would expect, but who knows) it's more often referred to as Blauer Kuchen (why not Blauerkuchen? Is this a Swiss German as opposed to German German convention?) in the English-speaking world, then the article should be at one of those titles. --Trovatore (talk) 08:44, 26 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
