It has everything I love in a German cake: a buttery shortcrust base, juicy tart cherries, a creamy poppy seed filling, and a light sour cream topping.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The combination of cherries and poppy seeds is especially delicious because the tart fruit balances the rich, nutty poppy seed layer. And while this cake looks impressive with all its layers, it\u2019s actually quite easy to make. Even better, it tastes best after chilling overnight, making it a great make-ahead cake for holidays and special occasions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1696\" height=\"2528\" data-pin-description=\"This German Poppy Seed Cherry Cake combines a buttery shortcrust pastry with tart cherries, a creamy ground poppy seed filling, and a light sour cream topping.

Whole poppy seeds won\u2019t give you the same texture or flavor. If you can only find whole poppy seeds, grind them in a poppy seed grinder or spice grinder first.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Use full-fat sour cream.<\/strong> The German version used a dairy product called Schmand and the most similar would be American sour cream but it tends to be thinner than German Schmand, so definitely choose full-fat sour cream for this recipe. It gives both the poppy seed filling and the topping a richer, more stable texture.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Cook the cornstarch mixture until really thick.<\/strong> The poppy seed filling needs enough structure to hold up once the cake is sliced. After adding the cornstarch slurry, let the mixture come to a boil while whisking and cook until it is noticeably thick.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Let the poppy seeds soak.<\/strong> Once you stir the ground poppy seeds into the hot pudding mixture, give them about 5 minutes to absorb some of the liquid before adding the sour cream.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Don\u2019t slice the cake while warm.<\/strong> For beautiful, clean slices, let it cool completely and then refrigerate it for several hours. I prefer making it the day before and chilling it overnight.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Choose your pan size.<\/strong> A <strong>9.5-inch (24 cm) springform pan<\/strong> gives you the very tall, generous layers you see here. You can also use a <strong>10-inch (26 cm) springform pan<\/strong> for a slightly flatter cake; start checking it a few minutes earlier toward the end of baking.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1800\" data-pin-description=\"This German Poppy Seed Cherry Cake combines a buttery shortcrust pastry with tart cherries, a creamy ground poppy seed filling, and a light sour cream topping.

In the US, look for jarred Morello cherries or tart cherrie<strong>s<\/strong>\u2014Trader Joe\u2019s is a good place to check. Avoid cherries packed in heavy syrup, as they will make the filling too sweet. Frozen tart cherries also work well; simply thaw and drain them first. Since you need cherry juice to thicken the filling, use <strong>bottled tart cherry juice <\/strong>if your cherries don\u2019t come packed in juice. For a less authentic shortcut, use cherrie pie filling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Store It<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Keep the cake covered in the refrigerator for up to <strong>3\u20134 days<\/strong>. In fact, I think the flavor and texture are even better on the second day, once the cherry and poppy seed layers have had time to fully set.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you love baking with poppyseeds, you gotta try my <a href=\"https:\/\/cinnamonandcoriander.com\/en\/german-apple-poppy-seed-cake-with-almonds\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"84478\">German Apple Poppy Seed Cake with Almonds<\/a> and my <a href=\"https:\/\/cinnamonandcoriander.com\/en\/german-plum-poppy-seed-crumble-cake\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"83545\">German Plum Poppy Seed Crumble Cake<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"recipe\"><\/div><div id=\"wprm-recipe-container-85665\" class=\"wprm-recipe-container\" data-recipe-id=\"85665\" data-servings=\"12\"><div class=\"wprm-recipe wprm-recipe-simple\">\n\t<div class=\"wprm-recipe-image-container\">\n\t\t<div class=\"wprm-recipe-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cinnamonandcoriander.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/mohn-schmand-kuchen-kirschen.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"Seitenanblick von einem St\u00fcck Mohn Schmandkuchen mit Kirschen und Schmandguss auf einem schwarzen Teller\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cinnamonandcoriander.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/mohn-schmand-kuchen-kirschen-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/cinnamonandcoriander.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/mohn-schmand-kuchen-kirschen.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"wprm-recipe-buttons\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/cinnamonandcoriander.com\/en\/wprm_print\/german-poppy-seed-cherry-cake-with-sour-cream\" class=\"wprm-recipe-print\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"><span class=\"wprm-recipe-details-icon\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" x=\"0px\" y=\"0px\" width=\"16px\" height=\"16px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\"><g ><path fill=\"#343434\" d=\"M19,5.09V1c0-0.552-0.448-1-1-1H6C5.448,0,5,0.448,5,1v4.09C2.167,5.569,0,8.033,0,11v7c0,0.552,0.448,1,1,1h4v4c0,0.552,0.448,1,1,1h12c0.552,0,1-0.448,1-1v-4h4c0.552,0,1-0.448,1-1v-7C24,8.033,21.833,5.569,19,5.09z M7,2h10v3H7V2z M17,22H7v-9h10V22z M18,10c-0.552,0-1-0.448-1-1c0-0.552,0.448-1,1-1s1,0.448,1,1C19,9.552,18.552,10,18,10z\"\/><\/g><\/svg><\/span> Print<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t<h2 class=\"wprm-recipe-name\">German Poppy Seed Cherry Cake with Sour Cream<\/h2>\n\t<div class=\"wprm-recipe-summary\">\n\t\tMakes one 9.5-inch (24 cm) springform cake.
