Over the last 150 years, a wide variety of European food and cuisine has been introduced and popularized in Japan. French cuisine has beende dominant at the 'haute cuisine' level. German food and cuisine has not enjoyed similar success; however, Vienna sausage and Baumkuchen have become household names in Japan. In this sense, German food culture has established a footing in contemporary Japan. This chapter introduces some cases that pertain to the spread of German food and cuisine and analyses the historical background of this process. German 'soft power', such as music, film, or sciences, is highly appreciated worldwide, whereas German food is consistently underestimated. This chapter aims to reassess German 'soft power' in the sphere of food culture. The term 'soft power' is defined in this chapter as cultural influences, including food culture, which are in contrast to 'hard power' such as military, political, or economic strength.
