Does ANYONE know the secret element of the black forest cake

The one bakery that makes black forest cake authentically, Konditorei & Cake Buchald, makes black forest cake with a weird element that other bakeries don't put in a cake.

What the heck is it?
I'm located outside Germany.
And I'm trying to re-create the exact same version of Black Forest cake I had from the bakery.
I cracked most of secrets of each element (the bottom layer, vanilla sugar, gelatin, liquor and etc..).
but I cannot figure out what one layer in the cake is made of and how it is made.
Do you see that between the bottom layer and the top chocolate sheet, there is chocolate-colored and ganache-like layer beside sour cherries?
What is it?
Does anyone know how to make this German way?
I could just try making light chocolate ganache cream, but I want to make it as authentic as possible.
if anyone has any idea, please help. I've been doing research for the past month at night restlessly.
